That happened to my tach too. When it's night time, I can't see between 2,600 and 4,600 lol. But alas, I have no clue how to remove all that. I'd like to put in some white LEDs too, that'll look clean.

Remove ignition bezel trim. Disconnect dimmer. The dimmer completes the dash circuit so remember to plug it back in when you go to test your lights, else nothing will happen.

Four screws hold the cowl in, two behind the trim, two up top.

Four screws hold the dash cluster in, two on bottom, two on top.

Three bulbs are on the back of the cluster, the big green twist-lock sockets. Replace and go backwards to put your dash back in.

How exactly do you do this part? The rest seems straight forward. I'm a noob with wires.
