Thanks

Pretty sure you'll find it's a surface mount LED mate so not an easy change.

you will prolly find a replacement panel on ebay, I take it that it still functions as expected?

Still functions fine. Just the lightts dont illuminate as you turn the dial. Very annoying.

It's an SMD LED. Change if you have super leet electronics skills. Otherwise it's a full panel swap.
