probably a simple fix,but is it a case of replacing bulbs or more complicated?

What obc do you have 6 botton or 13 button?
If it's the 6 button it's just a bulb if it's the 13 button you need to solder in new bulbs.

Just in case ,this may help

read all that,looks like one evening filled this week,saves me working on the old p6 v8 for a while!!!!!!!

I'm doing the same job, got the covers off to the left of the console and the radio was already out. You need the perfect sized screwdriver or its a total waste of time I'm tempted to dremel the vertical plastic to the right of the light bar and yank it out in place... but the perfectionist in me is going to spend another fiver on a screwdriver to do it properly.... and then lose one of the screws down the back of the console where it will rattle ever afterwards I'd imagine.

let me know how you get on

more or less.

Turns out the screwdriver you need is a Draper Expert 67861 7
Its just short enough to get in behind the OBC/Dash and long enough to grip the screws. Magnetic too, which was handy.

£2.50 from our local hardware store, I'm sure you could find it cheaper if you look.

Very handy. If you drop those screws they disappear into a parallel universe, never to be seen again.
