It goes into the back of the controls. You may have to pull the switches/controls out of the dash to put it in. Not difficult, maybe 1/2 hour job at most.

The real pain is that the bulb has to go in from the top. So if your radio is in you will not have fun, but it is possible to do it. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
