LEXIE Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 '93 SC400 i have read most of the posts related to removing and replacing bulbs in the dash speedo display including a very descriptive tutorial on how to remove the dash unit. i have what appears to be 2 bulbs out..one on the speedometer and the other on the tach. i thinlk i can get the unit out w/o much trouble but my questions are: 1) there are 8 bulbs backlighting the speedo/tach display. should i replace all 8 while i am in the remove/replace process, or just the 2. 2) i am still confused regarding how the bulbs are replaced. do i have to do a soldering job or can i just twist the bulbs out and replace them with the new ones. i am sticking with white so there shouldn't be any difference in the new bulbs i buy vs the old ones. every post i read related to this subject gets confusing when you finally have access to the burned out bulbs and it's like you have to do this and that rather than just twist the fk'n bulb out and replace it with the new one. a simple answer would be greatly appreciated. lexie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 you should be abel to take the bulbs out and get them at a toyota parts counter by matching them up it shouldn;t need any soldering jsut twist with a screwdriver. I would replace all as you are in there already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
