basic rundown of what you are gonna see

so your radio is missing bulbs....


after pulling off the dash, no screws,


you will see that the radio just pulls right out with 4 clups


start taking apart the radio by prying all the tabs round the face


and the front comes off except for the 2 wire connectors

they are removed with a needle nose pliers inside the unit


get the face off and it looks like this, remove the 5 small ass screws and it all comes apart


here is the back of the face buttons


and here is what your working on


i ordered these 3 bulbs from corvetteradios.com
99 to 04 Pontiac,Aztek,GranAm,Sunfire,Ponvan,Montana 3ea Delco Replacement Light Bulbs $20+ $2 S&H


and they sent me these :S
GM 95-02 10 Delco Display bulbs $20 $2 S&H


here was the difference i was looking at... and i said hell with it and put them in


solder then to the board


and put it back together


and back in the car


2 problems!

something happened when i had it apart.. notice the display screen.. there isnt full light across is anymore, also i lost my volume and tune rotary buttons light... thinking this has something to do with the wires on the faceplate being incorrect...

also, i only replaced the 3 white bulbs, not any of the orange LED's that light the numbers... radio shack did not have them, and i am going to order online... so you see in the last pic that the bottom row works fine, but some of the numbers are not lit.

i also replaced the red theftlock LED with a blue one

when i get the orange LED's in... i will take it apart again and see why the display is not right
