Can't tell how fast I'm going.

The bulb that lights the needle on the speedometer has burnt out, so at night I can't tell how fast I'm going.I have to watch the speedo for the needle to cross the numbers to even tell where the needle is at, lol. Can i get to the bulb by removing the dash pad or do I have to pull the whole instrument panel out?

It's not hard. At all. The hardest part is if you have a mechanical speedo, which I don't think you have in a 92. Just drop the column by undoing the two support bolts, and take out the cluster. It's nice and easy.
