There is 5 or 6 bulbs for the clusters lights(speedo and tach) and 11 or 12 for the indicator lights(brake,4x4 etc)

The cluster lights are the 194s I think, they look like little peanuts. I replaced mine with blue ones they look kinda cool, you can get blue, red green etc.

Its been a few years, so I dont remember the type of bulb (just went over to ScarboroSubaruSuzuki and asked for the right ones) but I must agree CHANGE THEM ALL AT ONCE!  I replaced a blown bulb on the speedo cluster of my old '92 sidekick, and at night you could see this huge difference between the old and new bulbs brightness.  

From what I remember the only tricky part is taking apart the cowl and dash.  But even I managed to do it.

Just wire up a new fixture on the outside of your dash. Thats much easier ;D

Four screws to remove the cowl and then four more to remove the speedo, tilt it forward and replace bulbs, you shouldn't need to remove any of the dash  ???
