You can just pull off that black cover, it's held on by a few clips. You will have to remove the shift knob to fully remove the cover. Underneath there is access to the bulb, just twist it and remove the bulb holder and pull the bulb out.

Black Plate

Remove the black plate only, it comes right up with a standard screwdriver, NO NEED to remove the shift knob or other parts. easiest bulb change ever.
Mine is blown also right now, but it doesn't serve much purpose to me, because of the dash indicator.
