take the covers off , you will see the the meter , find the side that the blub goes into meter , should be 2 red wires going through a rubber white gromit , you can take a needle nose and carefully grab on to the gromit and work it out the side of the meter (sometimes they use a rubber type glue but that will normally pick right off) you will see how the blub sits in the gromit ,usually you can pull the blub out with the wires following through the holes in gromit , you can then cut the old blub off and solder a new one on , you might find them still at Radio Shack . Take the old one with you to compare , it needs to be 12 volts. It may or may not look the same but it will be close enough. That's it ! Good luck to you
