E53 Cluster Removal and Bulb Replacement

Do you have a dimly lit odometer in your cluster? I was happy to discover the simple repair for this was to replace the bulbs in the back of the cluster. So I made a video on how to DIY this:

Thank you for the post my cluster light went out and now I don't need to spend hours researching how to fix it!

Did this myself, after viewing another youtube video. Unfortunately, I don't have [or couldn't find :(] the adjustable steering column, so I had to twist the binnacle to disconnect the wires in the back and turn the binnacle to get to the 'beige' lights. A quick, easy fix. thanks for the good video.
