The bulbs are set into some kind of white plastic holder that locks into some tabs on the top of the dash pod. Do these have to be removed before changing the bulbs so one can get at them. I changed them out a very long time ago on my '88 GL and have forgotten, but these seem very different somehow. The bulb and its black plastic base are mounted in a horizontal position. I don't remember the '88 being that way. These puppies are going to be hard to get to. On Fri, Oct 15, 2021 at 4:11 PM Stacy Schneider <vwcrewman@gmail.com> wrote: > I use a Gardeners faucet wrench.
