On my 99 Gt the driver info center is so dim I can't read it. My question is can I change a bulb to make it brighter or is there another way to make it brighter. Any help would be greatly appreciated

There are a couple bulbs in it, there is a write up floating around on how to change them, I am going to move your thread to gen tech and rename it to get ya some more hits.

They are the same bulbs that are behind your instrument cluster. There are just 3 twist in bulbs. They are 194's

So all I have to do is pull the dash trim remove the (dic) and change the bulbs? I don't have to mess with trying to rewire anything?

Ya I read that one already but nothing says if its bulbs or all internal lighting. The car is completely stock except the $300 CD player but no wires were snipped or anything so if it IS bulbs that would be great

Yep..just pull off the dash bezel, the DIC is just held in by two push in clips, one on the left side and one on the right side. Remove the harness on the back of it. Then you need to take the cover off of the DIC. Its just got some prongs that hold it there. You'll see the little square cutouts on the outer cover. Take a little screw drive or whatever you can find and push those plastic prongs down, gently. When you remove the cover you'll see this.....
The three bulbs on the right are the ones you'll need to replace (one of the bulbs in this pic is already missing). No wiring needed, no tools needed (except to push down the prongs on the cover)

While your at it use LEDs and change the color if you wish. If you can solider it's a snap
