I can’t see my any of my gauges or speedometer at night. I checked the fuses and they’re okay. So I need to find out how to get to the interior instrument panel light bulb to check it.

Also, my cigarette lighter doesn’t seem to be working either.
What I want to know is, how do I get to the interior bulb to replace a burned out bulb?

   Your cigarette lighter not working has nothing to do with bulbs. I assure you it IS a fuse most likely. There could be a fuse located in another spot from where you checked. First if you have an owner’s manual check to find the cig lighter fuse location. Your fuses should be marked somehow to show what each one is for.

   If you have checked the fuses and all are OK then you need to remove the dash or if you have small enough hands to reach behind the dash you can replace the bulbs. Most people remove the steering wheel and remove the dash trim then the dash retaining screws and pull the dash out about 10 to 12 inches to se where the bulbs are and replace them. I have done this for several Friends and it is a PAIN to do. If you go to a shop it will be expensive as uninstall and reinstall for the dash takes about 4 to 5 hours. Bulbs are cheap. So it will be 10 dollars for part and 200 dollars for labor. Good Luck
