nup just take out the trip computer itself it does come out, then unplug it and there is a white and a blue plug on the back, the white one is the actual numbers disply just take it out and swap it for a new globe.

Did you need to do the Odometer aswell?

that requires dash and Speedo unit removal.

The dash need to come out there is no other way to change the bulb. Its not a hard job, should not take more that 30 minutes from start to finish. You need to remove the stereo trim by removing the screws behind the ash tray and then all the screws on the facia (five I think) unplug the clock and other switches and then remove the 4 screws which hold the cluster in.
