Re: Instrument Panel Bulbs: Need Help

[Brendan Rudack <rudack@ucsub.Colorado.EDU>]

Yes, the steering wheel needs to be removed.  To get the horn pad off it 
takes a good tug, this will expose the nut that holds the wheel on.  I am 
unsure of the torque spec when reinstalling.  The steering column cover 
must come off with two screws.  This will expose the two screws holding 
the instrument cluster in.  Once these are removed the instrument cluster 
will slide out and needs to be unplugged.  I remember the bulbs to cost 
$3-$5 apiece.  I did this on my 90Q so but I have to imagine the large 
body cars are similar.
