MG MGF Technical - Heater control panel lights

The backlights for my heater controls are not working.I have checked the fuse which seems o.k so it would appear that i will need to check the lamps.It looks like i will need to remove the c.d player to get at the lamps from above.Does anyone know if i have to remove the c.d player or is there an easier way to check/replace the lamps.If so any ideas how i go about this and what type of lamps are fitted?
The car is a 54 plate mgtf

To get at the bulbs you need to remove the console, which means removing your CD player. To remove the heater control facial panel you need to pull off the knobs, the securing screws are behind them. You could try accessing from the footwell having removed the side panels but i don't think you will be able to get to it that way.
You'll find instructions on Rob's site :-
