Instrument Panel Bulb

Hello,

One of the bulbs in my instrument panel (behind the AC controls) burned out. Sucky thing is it happened 100 miles before my warranty ended, and I took it in 500 miles after the warranty expired (oil change time). Of course the Dealership and Mazda won't fix it. Well, thats not true...they'll fix it if I pay them $2 for the bulb, and $248 for the labor. Of course this leads to my question.

What part number is this bulb?

And, can anyone tell me how to pull out the instrument panel so I can replace it? I am pretty handy with this kind of stuff, but I honestly don't know where to start here. If you have a link to some pictures that would be especially helpful. I am hoping to change it this weekend (2 more days). Thanks!!!
