This has been brought up MANY times, but never fully answered. Apparently there are bulbs inside the unit. As far as I know the steps you'd take are as follows:

1. Remove radio trim bezel (just clips pull up and out dont break anything)

2. Unscrew the 4 bolts surrounding the heater controls

3. It's preferable to have your CD player or anything in the middle out for this, but you can push back the heater controls and and then sort of manuever the thing out a little bit

4. Unclip it from the wiring

That's as far as I've gotten.

ok i just remove all the things in the climate control and I saw these 2 tiny bulbs, I test it with a battery put 1 wire on the + side of the batery and the other one on negative and it did not light so i guess its the bulb. Where can I get replacement part for this I saw in the forum that u can buy it from radio shock. So ill just go there and show them the bulb? or u guys have a P/N for this? Thanks!

I will be posting a thread in the convertible forum prior to this weekend. The thread will cover the installation of LED's into the HVAC unit. It is a very simple mod that will fix your light problem and allow you to choose a nice color for your HVAC. If you have an aftermarket headunit, this will allow you to match your HVAC units color to your headunit.
