Lighted clock display burned out

The clock display is not lit when the lights are on (unreadable at night). Is there a bulb that needs replacing? Any help would be appreciated!

Yes there is. You have to remove the black dash trim piece to get to it.

Interesting you posted that. That bulb, including 2 other dash bulbs, all burned out within the last month.

Ew to spending 13 minutes of my life fixing it

i took my dash off today, where do you get the bulb from??? It's connected to this little white piece that you unscrew to get it out.

I read in one of the forums about replacing the clock backlight with an led bulb for longer life/effect. Is this something that can be done easily. Any info would be appreciated. I need to replace mine.
