Cap'n -- compliments of MorIBNR:
The lights for the buttons are replaceable. Do a search here and you will find instructions. Basically, remove the covers of the spot lights - pry them out carefully. You will see two bolts remove them. The whole unit is now removable. Disconnect the wiring harness. Here my memory is a little foggy, but there are two screw sockets behind the buttons - they have slots in them. Turn and remove. The very small bulbs are attached to these sockets. Go to Radio Shack and buy a package of 12 volt, 60mA Micro Lamps - #7219 - they are cheap. Remove one bulb by undoing the wire, and replace. Use the other one as a guide as to how to thread the wires. (Don't forget the green "condoms" for the bulbs - they just come off the old ones - you wouldn't want those things reproducing - you would have little lamps all over the place in a matter of days.)
Trim the excess wire. Repeat for the other one. Voila - you are done (except for reassembly.)
