Dash Speedometer Display

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.

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
