Remove the old light bulbs from the dash and replace them with the new ones. To do so simply twist the body of the light and it will pop right out. To install the new bulbs do the opposite. Push the body of the bulb flush with the mounting surface on the dash and then twist to hold it tight.

The final step is the reassembly. This is very easy as you simply repeat the steps taken to remove the dash but in opposite order. If upon reassembly you find some of the lights not working simply remove the bulb in question and switch the direction of the bulb in the body. That will fix the problem. As you can see the result is well worth it.
