dash light out on climate control unit

[sbiddle]

This is a 2001 626. The lights that illuminate the blower motor knob and the temp select knob are not working. Before I tear into it, can someone tell me if these use the little mini diodes that can be found at radio shack? I've fixed lights in a Subaru with these before. Is it hard to get behind there to fix these lights?
Thanks!

My car is a 626 '01 ES model. I tried prying the controls off, but only managed to crack the trim. Does anyone know how to get the controls off so the bulbs can be replaced? Perhaps the probe is different? The Haynes manual is crap for this detail.
