Default Replacing Shifter Lights
In my 2000 I have a console in the front and the lights by my 4x4 shifter are burnt out and I was wondering how do I go about replacing the lights.

have you removed the trim around the shifter yet? i assume you will need to remove the plastic console that surrounds the shifter to replace the light.

So then I have to take out my whole middle consome to replace it. There is no trim around the shifter...I don't have a shift boot, it's just the shifter down to plastic covers

4 bolts inside the console and there is some bolts in the bottoms of your cup holders you have to slide out the rubber insert in the bottom of them
