Help! Dash lights out! Cant see speedo at night!

Yeah, I've been having a lot of problems with lights going out on me. First it started with my speedometer needle light going out, which was usually re-startable with a firm fist to the top of the dash. however, now all the lights on the left side of my gauge cluster (speedo, oil pressure, fuel) are out. Is this a fuse problem, or am I just going to have to pull the cluster out and replace the lights? If anyone has done this before, your help would be appreciated.

sounds like a loose wire and maybe bad bulbs. The pounding the fist bit tells us its a loose wire. I pity you if you have to take the dash apart
