On some of the birds they used these little rubbery covers that fit over the bulbs. The ones I've seen were orange tho. I call them bulb condoms, might be blue ones available.

Just unscrew the 4 Torx screws holding the shift plate on (I believe they're at the wide front end and at the back, don't do the ones in the middle since they're dummies) and lift the plate up. You don't have to lift it all the way.

Toward the rear of the plate, reach under and there's a wire leading to the back of the shift indicator. Twist and remove the bulb holder, and then you can get at the bulb.

(this was all from memory, so if I forgot anything let me know)
