Replaceing the bulb that illuminates the 'time & temperature' read out on a '96 850 850 1996

I need to do this on my 96 850. I have done in on a 740 and it's not that bad and I assume the 850 is sorta the same. Probably 45 mins to an hour the first time. On the 740 you need to first remove the bezel by depressing two springs located in slots on either side. Once it's off, several screws hold the instrument cluster in place that you remove. You can then pull the instrument cluster out far enough to cut the tie wraps around the masses of wires back there ( looks like the space shuttle) which should allow you enough slack to turn it over to get at the blubs. On the 740, I just unplugged the wire connectors (about 5) and took the unit to my bench to replace the bulbs.
