Re: instrument panel bulbs

They have a black socket you turn and remove the bulb. I would take a flashlight and look if you can get your hand up their you can probably do it. You would have a good chance on an 88. Otherwise you will have to remove the inst cluster. You should be done in less than 1 hr.

I'VE REPLACED BULBS ON MANY MANY BLAZERS, AND I ALWAYS FOUND THE EASIEST WAY IS THE DIRECT WAY. THAT MEANS PULLING THE CLUSTER.
