Any more help?
I recently did all the small bulbs in my Legacy.
[The same as the SVX in most cases, thanks Earl]

Have not had the overhead switches off yet, did not need to.

The bulbs are extremely small. The base is about the size of the confetti that a paper punch pushes out. It has a slot that a blade screw-driver will catch, and screws in about a quarter turn.

Where the bulb is inserted into the switch can sometimes be covered over by a light aluminium patch[sticky] which stops stray light showing up elsewhere in the assembly that should be dark.

So maybe the bulb you look for is covered over.

Look closely at each switch for a hole the size I mentioned above, that will be the bulb aperture.
