I just thought I'd share my weekend repair with you all. Before I do I must say a special thanks to my wingman Deliverance (Chris) whom has propped up my courage enough to crack this project and has stood by for tech support. Cheers Chris!!

 

I've moaned in the past about my 55's light being burned out and Chris sent me a link for replacements. Well they arrived and I chose today (POURING RAIN) to tackle it and ....SUCCESS!!!!

 

Here's a few pics (including a before pic)

Only one bulb was gone but I replaced both while I had the case open. For those who want to tackle this..be very careful with the plastic tabs that support the fuse bracket they are FRAGILE! . Watch for the ribbon cable behind it as well. Chubby fingers were not meant for this work
