I have a 2.2 Vauxhall Omega Auto and the trip display is no longer showing anything. Someone suggested it has two bulbs and they have blown. Everything else on car seems to be working so guess it's not a fuse. Any ideas on how I get at it? Do I have to remove the dashboard facia and any advice on how to do that?

Not a straightforward job but not too difficult.Firstly remove cowling around steering column to access screw holding pod to dash.Remove centre airvent assy.Look through the grilles of the vent and you will see 2 screws diagonally opposite.Once removed ,there are 2 screws that secure the end of the instrument pod to the dash.Lift the left side of the dash forward and release connector to trip computor panel.This will allow the complete pod to slide to the left and be released from the multipin connector to the instrument panel.Once the pod is out,I would suggest change all the illuminatin bulbs to gauges also ,as you may find some not working on re-fitting.hth
