changing light bulbs behind HVAC panel

Hello everyone. My buddy has an 04.5 and a few of the light bulbs behind the HVAC panel appear to be burned out. I was just curious if you guys could shed some light on the proper way to take this part of the dash apart to get to the light bulbs. Also, are they 194's like we think they are, or are they a different type of bulb? Thanks in advance, you pros always have the answers

If I remember right, there is one screw behind the trash bag holder. Pull it out and then give a yank on the trim piece. Once that is off, pull the four bolts holding the switches in and have at it.

there not 194's
and i cant remember what the number is for them
i couldnt find them anywhere and ordered a bag of them from the dealer.

they are like the 194's and the older style plastic holder and 1/4 turn lock in deal.
but like 1/2 the size and the bulbs are soldered into the holder.

if you get in there - replace them all !
its like once you do a couple, the other ones start going out shortly after.

Alright guys, after a search around town in all the auto parts store there was no luck of finding them. Went to dodge and bought them for $2.35 each. Thanks.
