    Got an '02 Tacoma SR5 (with tachometer) that needs some instrument panel lamps replaced - temp gauge and lower range of tachometer are rather dim.

    Anybody know how many lamps are in the instrument panel? In the climate control panel? Are the lamps socketed, or soldered, to the circuit boards?

    (If I'm going to pull the dashboard apart, I might as well replace all the lamps at once.)

    I've got a service manual and am confident I can pull this off myself, but would love to hear any sage advice from anyone who has been there, done that. :)
