Instrument Cluster.
Ok so one of my instrument cluster lights seemed to be loose. So i went ahead and removed the cluster to see what was up. Also everyonce in a while my temp gauge would freak out and bounce all over the place. So i figured it was the batteries in the cluster after taking out the cluster, looking at it i discovered teh bulb was jsut loose, and the batteries are not leaking at all. So...not sure why the temp gauge is tweaking, but atleast i fixed the cluster light bulb. Either way removal is quiet simple in my 1991. Ill take pics, but its night time, so they may not be that great. anywho..thought i would share. Ill post pics later. Hurray for having nothing to do on a saturday night.

no steering wheel didnt have to be removed. update. i got the bulbs. replaced them. put it all back to gether..and realize that my Brake lining indicator bulb was out also...so i took it back apart and in the process borke the corner of the plastic shroud covering my instruments. Now i gotta go to a BMW yard and find an E30 and get the replacement part. DIY will be put together after i do that. GODAMIT either way...cause i fixed one thing and broke another.
