Default gauge light bulb replacment

How do I go about getting the front of the gauge panel off to get at the light bulbs behind the gauges to replace them?

Hi mom, there is a sticky, I think it is in the performance section that will tell you how to get to it.

its quite a complicated thing but not too bad if ya follow the directions in the sticky.

I think ya take the pillar trim out, then the center bezel, then the top section of the dash, then the bottom screws by pullin the center door down under your steering wheel...

I didn n replace the leds in mine but replace the entire gauge cluster to test some new ones I picked up and I thought it wasnt hard to take them out, granted I have taken my dash apart to many times to count. But really the only thing you have to watch out for is when your taking out the painted cover the gauges its very easy break it. Good luck it only took me a half hour to take it apart and put it back together.
