I need to change the bulb on the gear selector (auto Transmission,)

I 've removed the plastic trim etc down to the selector assembly, but can't see any obvious release clips to get at the bulb (lot more compact and 'easily broken' looking then the 740!)

If anybody can help or point me to a site or thread? (did a search in the forum, but I never know if I've searched using the right criteria!)

Thanks
Martin

Hey there!

I'm in the same boat -- the centre console's apart at the moment, and I'm planning on undoing the trans linkage underneath the car, undoing the 4 bolts that hold the shifter to the body/chassis, and getting at the bulb that way. At the same time, I'm going to replace the rubber seal/gasket between the shifter assembly and the chassis/body, as there's a little bit of salt crust inside, indicating it's letting a little water in.

I'll take pictures and post them once I'm done.
