Dennis,

The centre veneer panel has to be removed. It's secured with four spring clips:

JTIS suggests these clips should be replaced every time but I've never had problems re-using them.

With the panel removed, the Minor Instrument Pack (item 3) is secured with four self tapping screws (item 6):

After removing the self tappers, unplug the harness connector to remove the Minor Instrument Pack and access the bulbs from the rear.
