I searched an couldn't find a thread. Please just point me if this is already here somewhere.

Two of my three bulbs have burned out (behind three knobs). Any tips on where to pry that plate off so not to cause damage?

Any other tips on bulbs, etc. also very appreciated!

Thanks!

Look on page 1627 of this; should help:

Am thinking that bezel needs to come off in order for you to see where to GENTLY pry the heater control panel off to access the bulbs, like the older Toys. I haven't had mine off my Taco yet.

Bulbs should pull straight out.

Tape your screwdriver so you don't gouge anything and take your time. Patience is a MUST.

Thanks for all the links! Tedious for what it was, but it's nice to have all the lights lit again, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
