Check fuses first, otherwise you will have to remove shift console cover to replace light bulb.

Best thing to do is to use car repair manual link in this thread or get a Haynes manual.

The console can be a pain to remove and has to be done in a certain sequence. Once you have replaced the bulbs, check their operation before you reinstall console.
