If the radio is like the one from my '98 V70, they can be replaced. The radio is easy to remove -- just pulls out with the built-in pulls. Then a couple screws and catches to remove the front panel. The circuit board ribbon connector has to be gently removed, then the bulbs are assessable. I went to the dealer and identified the bulbs among several types he had on hand - about $5 each with the VCOA discount. They are tiny 1/4 twist things with blue bulbs. Shortly after I replaced the bulbs the CD player died so I put an Alpine unit in. If I remember right there are a total of 6 bulbs there.
