door lock switch bulb...

The little bulb that illuminates the door lock/unlock toggle switch on the drivers side is burnt out. (all the others in the arm rest are OK) Is it a PITA to change out or fairly straight forward?
cheers,

I think you're going to find that those bulbs are not designed to be easily replaced. Ford makes it much easier to repalce the whole switch assembly if memory serves me correctly. Although that sucks for us, it's easier for them.

True. Those lights are SMT (surface mount technology) and are extremely small. You'd have to un-solder and resolder them for a replacement. Either find a cheap replacement switch or learn to live with it.
