    I would also like to know how to do this on an 05 GT. Left left side of my display is really dim now. Any handy info on how to do this?

    This is what I am trying:


    http://www.corvetteradios.com/home/3bulbInstall.jpg

    You will see other information on how to get the radio out of the car and how to get the faceplace off. The link posted above takes it from there. Not 100% clear, but I think I can do it.

    Will you let me know if it works and how hard it is to do?

    Will do. I might even try and take pictures. If anyone already know that the solution posted in the http://www.corvetteradios.com/home/3bulbInstall.jpg link won't work, please speak up. I am a little concerned that it says it works for radio's through 2004. Mine is a 2005. Looks the same, but maybe they changed some internals. My plan is to try this weekend.

    I did it! I repaired the 3 lights in my 05 GT's radio. I used bulbs from Radio Shack. Total cost was about $8. I also took pictures of the whole procedure. Will try to have a write-up done by Sunday night. Any suggestions on how to do that on this forum. Can I put all the pictures and instruction in a single Word document and upload it? Or is there a better way.
