how to replace the analog clock light?

The light in the analog clock has gone out. I searched the web and didn't see any tutorials on how to replace it (only for the g35). Anyone know how to do it? Car's not under warranty so I'd rather do it myself than take it to the dealer

Interested too b/c mine is flickering and I'm assuming it'll go completely dark soon.

The LED's which illuminate the clock are soldered directly to the circuit board. Unless you have experience soldering such small pieces, unfortunately, the clock will have to be replaced.

Has anybody changed out the clock? I just bought a replacement clock so will be attempting the change out soon. After that, I may mess around with trying to fix the old clock.
