Hello all,
My mom has a 1995 Legacy L w/automatic transmission. This past weekend the
lightbulb that lights the console area of the automatic shifter (the area
showing P, R, N, D, 3, 2, 1 beside the shifter itself) died. So now when
it's nightime and she goes to shift, the previously lit area beside that
shifter is now darkened. She stopped by the dealership just to get their
opinion, and the service advisor came out with a WHOPPING $89 price tag to
fix it. I know that is BS for sure. I can replace it for her, I just need
instructions on how to remove that center console piece. Once I do that I
can run by AutoZone and get a bulb and fix it for her.
How do I remove that cover beside the automatic shifter to change that bulb?

To remove the molding around the shifter you have to remove the molding
around the hand brake lever; to remove it, open the center arm
rest/storage and remove the two screws in the front part of the box.
Then you can pry the rear molding and then you can take the molding
around the shifter.
If by any chance you need to remove the whole console box, it is secured
by two screws inside and at the bottom of the storage box and by another
screw close to the shifter molding.
Good luck
