The bulb behind my face guage where it shows the oil temperature is out (the bulb on the right hand side). Has anyone replaced their face gauge bulbs? Is it hard and what kind of bulb do I need to replace it? Thanks for any help.

the bulb is not very hard to change. do realize that you are going to have to remove your stearing wheel to get the the gauges (and i know there are going to be people that say you dont have to remove the wheel and that they have done it without takeing it off. But it really isnt that easy to do. i tried and broke the front plastic on the gauges) then take the gauges out and once they are out you can replace the bulb. i cant rember the size of the bulb off the top of my head. i believe it to be a 194 but dont quote me on it. good luck with the repair.

You don't have to take the steering wheels out. As a matter of fact, there's two bolts under the stearing that you have to take out. (13 mm bolts) This realeases the steering wheel down a little. However, it's easy to do. But to put the wires back onto the cluster is a pain. Acutally, i did this for the 5th time on my car yesterday. I'll probably take about 30mins if you know what your doing.
Good luck.
