i haven't been following this discussion, but if it is in reference to
the newer cars, this is not true, because yesterday i saw my mechanic
do it with my own eyes.  took a little screwdriver, pried out the
front faceplate of the defroster switch and replaced the bulb.. (which
cost $1 at the dealer).  the switch remained in its installed position
throughout.  the ABS defeat switch bulb was also replaced in the
same manner.  took less than 5 minutes. (they didn't charge me for
labor either)
