It's not that hard to change the bulb if you can handle taking the dash apart. I believe is just a twist style bulb so it's easy to replace, but I forget what kind it is exactly.

I believe you can get to it from the back side of the cluster. You don't need to take the gauge apart.

Yes cluster must come out. I believe it's only a few screws and the whole thing comes outt. You just have to unplug the harness from behind when pulling it out.
