Have you popped out the switch and taken the front cover (the part with cruise control on it) off? You might not even be able to replace the bulb. Take it apart and find out..

Alternatively, the entire switch assembly can be purchased for about $40 at Majestic.

$40 is a bit steep - those bulbs are 'pocket parts' at the junkyard, or max a couple bucks. The bulbs are ~3.50 from Majestic. There is also a DIY on this site for how to replace the bulbs with ones from Radio Shack.

I agree that replacing the bulb would be a much more inexpensive option. Do you have the link to the DIY? I just wanted to point out an alternative.
