Default Ride Height Switch Bulb Out

I changed out the seat climate control bulb on my 2006 LS430 UL following yuri.ber's excellent instructions*. I still have the bulb out in the ride height switch. It's the only thing wrong on the entire car and it's bugging me.

Here is the question. Following the directions I removed the lower console panel then the three screws holding the upper switch panel. The panel seems to be all one piece with the CD changer above and it won't move. How does one remove it to get at the switch back? Any suggestions?

If I recall correctly, look up and underneath - there is a 10mm bolt on the left and on the right. Undo both of those and the whole thing (including the plastic sides in front of the cd changer) comes out. Don't pull too hard because there are still cables connected.

I changed this one a few years ago without any difficulty. You will definitely need to unplug the 3 harnesses, and may need to take the switchbox out from the enclosure of 3 switches to access the little light. Otherwise the light is on the side of the box.
