A couple of screws, a couple of retainer clips and a couple more screws. It shouldn't take you longer than 1 hour to figure it out.

I'm a 72 year old woman, was able to remove the plastic shrouds on the steering column, and pull off the piece of the dashboard above the instrument panel with no problems--you are correct, just some screws. The issue I ran into is, the 4 panel lights (for speedometer, Tachometer, gauges) were really easy to replace--just pull out the old bub and put in the new one, but the odometer light is a small one, and I can't figure out how to pull the old one out of the holder--it just won't come out. Any suggestions?
