Well, I went on a late night slurpee run (which btw cafe latte slurpee is absolutely disgusting) and as soon as I turned on my headlights, I discovered that a small portion of my speedometer (between 35 and 45 mph) is significantly dimmer than the rest of the panel. What could cause this? Is there more than one bulb in there? Could it be a fuse?

One of the MANY bulbs inside the instrument cluster has decided it has had enough with life.

Does that say 620K miles?!?!
Also, if that's the case, then I guess I will be getting a quote from the dealer on replacing that. I refuse to work with plastic trim, especially since I can never get it to go back on without rattles afterwords.

Really?
I've taken part of the KJ's dashboard apart and haven't had issues. It snaps back together without hassle and remains quiet, but never replaced any of the IC bulbs...

Good time to upgrade all the lights behind the dash to LED's......

I think a white or blue backlighted instrument cluster would look pretty sweet.

It'd be cool, but keep in mind that the IC is tinted green (the filter is green), not the bulbs.
Lot of guys did a whole lot of work with the Pontiac dash/IC/switches and turned them blue when I had my Prix. I wanted to, but never got around to it.
