remove the piece of plastic in front of the gauge housing.
remove the cover that goes beneath you steering wheel.
reach up in there and disconnect:
speedometer cable, and (2) wire connections (one on each side of
cluster--*note: these can be a bitch--have patients)
locate & remove the (2) screws on upper part of gauge cluster (facing you if
you're in the driver's seat)
you'll have to wiggle and turn the cluster, but it WILL come free eventually
(turn right side to the back while turning cluster up at the same time)

once in your hand, you'll see two little black knobs on the back side
towards the top, twist counter-clockwise and there's your light(s)!

hope that helps!

How do I replace the lights that illuminate the gauges on an 88 16v?  The
one over the speedometer went out and the one over the RPMs dimmed
significantly.  I was able to (somehow - I don't know how exactly) get the
one of the RPMs to get back to it's normal brightness, but the Speedometer
light remains dead.  How do I get access to the lights?

Thanks in advance,

Rusty
88 16v
