Pull the centre out, (two bolts) then lean it forward, disconnect the speedometer, and lift it out. Then unfold the clasps, and pull the shrouds off with pliers, easy as. No need for brighter bulbs, as it is just so much better, just put new bulbs in when you are there, and you will be surprised.
hands and mums dont count!!!

Remember to only remove the shrouds around the 2 lights on the left and right hand sides. It will make a huge difference. I replaced my lights with LEDS, dearer, but I think it's worth the cost. :)
