See the knob with the numbers round it , sure its the middle.
The but u use to turn it, (the bit that sticks out lol) pull that (pretty hard) and it will come out , the bulb is in there
Last time i went to VW think the bulb was about 1.20

Yep, defo that middle knob that has to be pulled out - the bulb holder is behind it
When I first got my car, that bulb was blown - soon sorted it though

Won't be able to change the colour easily, as its a white bulb
The colour comes from some red plastic behind the controls, the white bulb sits in the centre of this and lights it up
Its a very small wedge type bulb I think, small anyway
