Re: instrument cluster
I believe the lamps and holders come complete??
Failing that you may be able to butcher them, but getting replacements may be a pain???

If things were meant to be easy, then I will soon complicate them....

Re: instrument cluster
The bulbs and the little holders are a single item, and will most likely be destroyed in separating the two sub parts.
E-bay has them available, as they are common to many models & vehicles.
There are also colour options available.
If you go down the LED replacement route - suggest you go either ALL LED's or ALL bulbs, as the two have different light levels & will make a poor finished look if mixed.
