Gauge Light Removal

Ok, how the f*** do I get the gauge lights out of their holders? I'm worried I'm either gonna break the bulb or break the holder. Any help please?

How did you do it, cause I cant seem to figure out how to get them out either lol, my Service Engine Soon, Service Vehicle Soon, ABS, and Trac Off lights dont work.. and from what it looks like, the previous owner tampered with it because I went to take the cluster out and the 4 bolts that hold it in the dash arent even there.. so hmm.

Where do you get replacement bulbs at?

All of those lights should be LEDs.

uh, no. theyre all bulbs, and mine were soldered in. I'll look into a solution for interchangable bulbs for our clusters.

The service-engine, ABS, Low-Trac, Trac-Off, Brake, etc.. lights are regular bulbs? Are you sure on that one? I know the backlighting, turn signals and highbeam indicator are regular bulbs...

I couldn't figure it out either, so I started breaking the ends off where it was solderred and pulled them out... not the best way, but it worked.
