Instrument panel light bulbs?
the cluster needs to be removed then a simple quarter turn of the bulb base and out they come, now finding the right bulb may be the hardest part, the little itsy bitsy bulbs arent sold in the auto stores, usually a trip to the dealer or junkyard is required.

What step(s) are needed to get it loose?
I replaced the bad bulbs without disconnecting the harness. I didn't want to take a chance on damaging it and there was enough room to easily replace the bulbs.

This is what I did on my van. You can do this if you have a hard time finding the PC74 bulb (Bulb and base together) or if you want to replace original bulb with an LED type light.
This is an easy way to save the base off the old bulbs.
