Subject:88 Vanagon auto transmission indicator lamps - how to change?
From:John Graham
Date:Thu, 28 Mar 2002 09:00:28 -0500

Hi all,

As my subject line indicates, my light bulbs that illuminate the auto
transmission gear position indicator have burned out.

My look through the Bently manual seems to indicate that somehow the top
part of the interior 'transmission shifter tower' comes off to provide
access to those burned out bulbs.  I've done some minor prying with a
screwdriver to see if the top would pop off, but so far no luck.

Can anyone out there enlighten me as to the secret?  Also, once I get this
cover off, do I need to have made a trip to the local VW shop to get new
bulbs or can I expect to get what I need from FLAPS?

Thanks all.
