How would I go about removing the heater and blower switches from the Center Console..... I want to replace the light bulbs that light up the console.
Thanks all...

I did that, but I have huge hands.... let me put in perspective.... I wear a size 14 shoe, so imagine the size of my hands. I cant get the light back into the holder on the right side

take out the top switches (rear window demister etc) and you will see two screws going upward into the dash board. remove. then using a small flat driver prise off the 4x4inch panel surround around the heater direction control levers. behind this small panel are four screws, remove. pull off the heater lever control knobs, pull off the fan control switch, pull off the heat control switch and remove the nut. then the whole radio/heater control surround will come out (remove radio and clock too!) then easy to replacethe bulbs.
