According to the owners manual the A/C heater control lights are
"Not Serviceable"!
I guess you have to replace the whole climate control panel.

Here is how I removed it:

At the bottom of the centre stack in the little cubby hole there is one Phillips screw. Remove that and gently pry/pull the centre trim piece from the bottom up.
Then undo the cigar/power outlet plug (Right side bottom),
unplug the HVAC lighting plug (Left side bottom) and the two prong vacuum plug
for the Dash, defrost, floor selector (Slightly off centre to right)

I wonder if the climate control panel could be pulled apart and new bulbs
soldiered in.

I'll pull mine out again later today when Jen gets home and see if it is possible.

damn!
I removed that a lot of times, in fact I just did some work back there last week, I guess I pulled some wires or shorted something. I will pull it apart again and see if there is any connection that could be loose.
The vacuum plug is not really two prong. It has prongs or hoses for each one of the position, held with clips. Squeeze, pull, tsssssss air gets out...

damn again!
