These are actually LEDS, one each for the +/- and for the PRND position. Holden will offer one each of red or white but this is an error. You take both white unless you have a particular red themed dash I guess.
These cost around $18 for the pair and are a push in fit.
The challenge is getting to them.
Just ahead of the electric window buttons you can lift the plastic cover surrounding the auto shift knob. It will unclip with a little pressure or use a small screwdriver to lever it up and it will pop out. Disconnect the electric window wiring loom and the loom at the front and put this cover aside.
Now prise the base of the auto shifter apart from its top cover by locating the four white plastic tabs and pushing in with a screw driver at the same time puling the base and top apart. Now lift the cover up the auto selector stalk. You might have to stick the PRND sign and the +/- sign back on with a bit of Supa Glue,
This should expose the two leds one left and one right. These are a quarter turn so turn each and withdraw with wiring attached. Use some pointy nosed pliers if it's easier. Now simply pull the leds out of each socket. Note they are an oblong shape so they go back in the same way. Replace with new leds.
Turn on ignition or close and open drivers door and these will illuminate. Reinstall everything.
