Abhellrazor,
TRUE, all you do is pry up on the shifter area until the left side (side closest to the drivers leg) is up enough for you to stick your hand in and twist the bulb out. Once the bulb is out, just replace the original bulb with the LED bulb and replace the whole thing. It is deffinitely easier than you think it is.
Seriously, go outside RIGHT NOW (take a small flat head screwdriver with you) and try prying up (slowly) on the shifter area, it'll pop right up and you'll see what I mean about the rest. If you want turn your lights on while doing this to help you find the original bulb.

Edit:
The only thing that I really dont care for is that this mod will turn your needles the same as your numbers. It doesnt bother me too much because I love the look of blue LEDs. Hence all the lights on my car, LOL.
I am looking into maybe getting some of those purple or red glowing needle kits.
