Instrument panel light C70

It seems this is my month for posting but I do have another minor issue. The light on the left side of the time display has gone out. Is this something I can replace or is it a "remove the dash" to get to it kind of thing? I checked B13 and couldn't locate anything.

This is not a real big deal, but I'm one of those types that wants EVERYTHING to work correctly and look good on my cars.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

    A bulb is out. Bay13 has a very good tutorial on instrument panel removal for 850 and one for V70. The dash top doesn't have to be removed, just lifted on the driver's side.
    I suggest replacing ALL of the instrument bulbs while you are in there. Micro bulbs from radio shack, $1.50 for 2 and get a bunch for the switches in the dash which will fail sooner than later, and 5W bulbs at any autoparts store.
