All of mine have gone, and have never worked since I got the car in September lucky I know what all the functions are.
It says how to do it in the Haynes book and is quite lengthy, not just a case of taking the dials off. iirc you have to take off the air vents above, hazard button, heated rear screen dial and then be very careful with some screwdrivers prising it out!

You're probably better of replacing all 3 bulbs then whilst you have the whole console out - save doing it again!

yeh i have the same problem, not only in the heater/centre console but also behind the speedo/rev dials, it appears to have 3 bulbs behind and the middle one has gone - meaning i cant see the speed until 60ish or revs till 4k!!
anyone have a guide with pics on how to replace these and those in centre console?
search function seems to be dissabled
thank you,

I should imagine just taking the dash glass out etc - there is plenty of screw holes around, just be careful. You'd definitely access the bulbs from inside the car

the dash clock ones are easy, i changed mine to blue ones. i hav no pics but all u hav to do is unscrew the two screws that hold the ignition casing together, then the one undernieth. then theres two more on the plastics behind the steering wheel.(clocks casing)undo them and take it off this will reveal the clock panel. theres 2or3 more screws holding the dial console in.undo them and pull out the dial console.
oh if ur corsa is an early one it will hav a speedo cable too. this can b a pain in the arse. u can just about get ur hand behind the console to release it.......good luck. lol
