Yeah they can its easy. Pull the 2 vents forward and undo the 2 screws. Lift the mfd up and unplug. Unscrew the mfd and change the bulbs.

Don't bother with LED's. Most probably will be a shit fit, and when you turn your lights on, they'll flicker because of a lack of current.

Yes, you can get the bulbs for the MFD from Halfords

I've had blue leds in both my corsa's and none of them have 'flickered due to lack of current?'

Was only in the MFD that they flickered. I;ve heard other people say about it before, due to a rubbish connection.

But the ones behind the heater console were shocking, and I could only see them when in complete darkness.

Standard yellow ftw.

I bought LED's. It was a mistake. They aren't that bright. I went to Vaux and got some more bulbs, much brighter and cost me next to fuck all.
