Default oil pressure/clock/voltage meter backlight replacement?

I have viewed the videos on replacing main dashboard back lighting for early-mid 2000's XK8s (Rev Jim's is very good) but I cannot find any resources on removing the center dash wood fascia to replace burned out back lights for the center gauges - the oil pressure gauge, clock and voltage meter. Does anyone have instructions or know of a video that explains the process? I am working with a 2005 XK8.

Thanks!

The wood pries straight out. Pry gently and work it towards you evenly. The mounted tabs are straight and just insert into the holders. Once that is done you have access to the mounts.

John has a very good XK8 Youtube series. One episode covered these Centre gauges. Link below.
