Question Odometer backlight question

I finally got around to changing my burnt out D5 bulb, only to find out after reassembly that the right-hand side of the odometer backlight is out now (I assume it was weak and got jostled just right). The temperature side is still good and bright.

My question is, is this bulb accessible from the rear of the cluster or do I need to disassemble the whole damn cluster and gauge assembly again?
Also, does anyone have the part number for the bulb?

I think I figured it out; there are three that are installed from the back of the cluster: 78181-S0K-A21

Yup, you got it. Odometer bulbs are easy peasy. And yea you're right, the weak bulbs tend to burn out when you replace something. Two ODO bulbs and my D5 bulb went out when I installed my gauges.
