Lights for the Half Front

Ok so i have a question, is there a back light to the heater control, etc. to see at night?? mine is not visible in a 1991 camaro rs.

There should be a bulb on the right side of the heater control. Pull the cover plate, then the heater control assembly. You shouldn't have to pull it too far out to access the bulb.

Dash lights - remove the instrument panel cover - six screws IIRC, then remove the plastic lens piece. I believe that should get you to where you can see the light bulbs set in the instrument panel. Been a while since I had to do that on the Camaro, did the Firebird last spring, replaced six bulbs, really lit up the panel !!

You have to remove the whole cluster to replace the lights on your model. And as mentioned, the HVAC control light is just behind the face over the top of the right side and can be reached from behind by loosening it up and pulling just a little bit forward. Unscrew and pull out the bulb. Easy to find at the store
