The panel was originally designed to have the bulbs changed from the back - the bulb holders would simply pop out to give access to the bulb, and snap back in. For this reason there’s a good chance of pushing the holder off its seat while inserting the bulb and losing the whole thing behind the dash. If this has already happened - here’s a way round it - It calls for a bit of keyhole surgery:
* Drill a small hole adjacent to the bulb holder
* Using a piece of piano wire, its quite easy to clip them back in place.
* The same piece of wire will hold them in position while replacing the bulb.
