Bulbs for seat belt / brake lite removal

[Chuchuf]

I'd like to check the bulbs in my dash mounted Seat Belt / Brake lights.
I've looked but can't find out how you access the bulbs?
Can someone please tell me how.

Thanks,

Terry

No response??
Hard to believe that no one has done this or knows how to remove these bulbs.

What year? Some are sealed units, others have a panel that comes off.
Porsche changed them over the years.
Have you removed it yet?

Hi Chuchuf. In an SC i'm fairly sure you can pull the clock out of the dash and you can reach in access the wiring and bulb holders from the rear of it. Like timmy2 said it depends. You might have to pull the whole unit from the dash, change the bulbs and pop it back from the back of the dash.

Hi Terry,
Like gazzer said. Remove the clock, it just wiggles out, then push from behind as you pull the warning light assembly out from the front. Once out about an inch or so, it will be easier to pull off the connector. The bulbs are soldered into place on a small circuit board inside the unit.
Good luck,
Dave

Thanks Dave, I'll have a look at it that way and see if I can access.
