Replacing the Dashboard Bulbs on Toyota Corolla

Model: Toyota Corolla MK 3 - Years 2006-2013
Part: Dashboard

First, remove the two lower and side plastic strips from the central dashboard, as shown in the video (if it’s difficult by hand, use a plastic wedge). Then, similarly, remove the two upper strips. Now detach the air vents and place them on top of the dashboard before removing the radio frame. Unscrew the screws located at the sides of the climate control area: this will allow you to finally remove that plastic and disconnect its connectors. Then access from the back to extract the small bulbs and replace them with the ones you purchased. Reassemble everything in reverse order.
