OK, so I need to replace about 3-4 bulbs on mine. I called the dealer gave them the part # (4839738AA) and I got quoted $4.95 per bulb. The entire cluster uses a total of 9 bulbs. My question is has anyone else replaced bulbs on their instrument cluster? What did you pay for yours? My other choice is going to the junk yard and getting some from a newer Liberty. |

I got one bulb out on my '02. It's the one between the 70-80 mph mark on the speedo. Doesn't bother me much. |

Still have all bulbs functioning in mine. But if it were me - I would replace all 9 at once. At $5.00 each that is under $50 in parts (minus tax) to ensure that you will not have to redo the cluster for a long while. |

Mine too. But it's not really out. It'll go dark, but if I tap on the dash just above it, it comes back on. |

the left half of my speedometer is out. As long as the whole cluster is not dim I'm ok with it. |

AT 79 cents I would have to ask: Would you be willing to pick some up for me?

Yup. Call 'em up, and see if they'll take your CC# over the phone, order as many as you like. I'll pick 'em up for ya Friday. Their parts dept is closed right now though...I was RIGHT BY them earlier, too. They don't keep them in stock, though. 888-811-0333 www.kingsdodge.com |
