Default Clock light / Odometer light out - 98 Accord

Both of these lights are out on my Accord - any suggestions? Is this easy to do?

Clock light is easy, and common. The Dealer has those bulbs in stock.....no doubt.
Use small screwdrivers on either side of the clock, and maybe a flat spatula as back up.
The clock will just pop out.[The back up is to prevent dents in the dash panel]

For the speedo,I suggest you look on majestic honda website to see the parts breakdown and get an idea of what trim needs to be removed; but it isn't hard to do.

RANT; flatrate time pays the same for Accord clock bulb replacement and Odyssey.
Yet in the Odyssey the entire dash has to come apart.
Wonder why Honda is losing top techs?

You just need to remove a few screws on the top of the black piece of trim, then the 4 screws holding the gauge cluster in. Unplug the 3 plugs on the cluster and you can pull it out. The cluster is fairly easy to take apart, but you may be able to get to that bulbs without disassembling it.

The clock is very easy, in fact most times I can just pull it out with my fingers.
