87 924S So it looks like my oil pressure gauge light has burned out. So at night I can not see it, does the center console have to come out to put in a new bulb?

1. Remove the center console as follows:
   1. Remove the two screws that hold the instrument panel, remove the panel, and disconnect the plug for the instruments. Lay the panel aside so it doesn't get damaged.
   2. Remove the radio and disconnect the wires from the back of the radio.
   3. Remove the faceplate for the heater controls. It snaps off. Then remove the two screws that hold the controls to the console.
   4. Remove the gearshift boot and move the gearshift lever back to give you enough clearance to remove the console.
   5. Remove the six bolts/screws that hold the console in place. There are two large hex head bolts under the ash tray, two in the top of the console going into the bottom of the dash, and two on the side of the console.
   6. You should now be able to remove the console by sliding back toward the gearshift lever.

Do I have to remove the instrument first?

(Check your fuse first!) The bulb should mount in the back of the gauge, just like the others (unless updated by a PO> ) Clark's Early 944 and 924S are identical dash part replacements.

Good time to upgrade all interior gauge lighting if you're pulling it all apart anyhow. Removing main gauges is easy- removing console gauges just takes time to get to. AND Fix the pesky odometer trip meter gear on the way.
You will notice and appreciate brighter gauge at night driving-

FWIW-- ONE brighter gauge than the others always bothered me.
