There's a bulb in the back of the clock, you have to prise [carefully] out the clock mounting trimstrip from the facia, withdraw the trim and disconnect the wiring connector from the rear of the clock, tie a piece of string around the connector incase it falls back into the facia, the clock is now clear and you should see the bulb. change it and replace.

Yep. Work a blunt flat object behind the trim from the passenger side toward the centre and it just unclips forward.
