fixed clock light in 15min
So, i thought it was gonna be a few hours for me to replace my clock light, but it took me about 30min. I could have done it in 15 if i were just gonna swap out the bulb but I put in an LED instead which took me 15 minutes to fit and solder. Only problem is i think i may have put the filter backwards because my clock in now indego blue. I'll try reversing the filter to see if i can get the orginal color.
Basicallly for a 2003 non nav, you just remove the dash part around the insturment panel. Then you can just swap out the bulb. Its easy to remove the clock take then it apart if u want to go the LED route.

blue filter + colored bulb = green tint

If you need to get access to your radio, then you have to remove the wood trim around the center console, then the center console itself, then the dash part under ur steering wheel, then the side covers on each side of the radio, then a few screws for the radio.
