08 Grand Prix HVAC control lights
 
Has anyone changed bulbs in the '08 HVAC control panel. I have a couple burned out and am trying to see if they are even replaceable. One is for the seat heater on the drivers side and also the temp up/down buttons on the same side. I have seen a couple of videos showing how to change to led bulbs but I don't think I want to get that involved. They did give good instructions on how to access the inside of the unit but do not explain how to, or if, the bulbs are removable. It is our daily driver so I don't want to take it all apart and find out that I need to order bulbs or find that it isn't even practical to change bulbs. Thanks.

They are 3mm bulbs and are replaceable. Unfortunately, you will have to solder them (I personally can't solder anything that tiny), and will also have to preserve the clear plastic sleeves they are in, unless you want your lights all white.

Thanks for the reply. Do you know where I could get the bulbs?

Used to be the answer was, "Radio Shack." Sucks that it no longer is.
