How to remove rear defrost bulb?
Just finished reading Bauley's "DIY Amber Dash Lighting" (awesome writeup) and I was wondering how difficult it is to remove and paint the defrost button bulb? Anyone know?

It's very simple just pop the button unit out, unplug it, on the side you will see what looks like two plastic phillips head screws. Give them a quarter turn and they will come out, that is your bulbs

so easy that if you bothered to look at it yourself you would have been done already instead of making this post.

I'm gonna paint mine the same color as my dash/climate bulbs. It's that Testors Champion Orange color. Fake JDM at a fraction of the price. YESSIR!!!
