I have two questions:

How do I access the in dash light bulbs? They are burnt out. The gear shift one is too but I guess that is expensive to replace.

My interior molding (trim) fell off. Near the windshield, above the door. What parts do I need to put is back on? It looks like there are some kind of stud and groove thing going to snap it back on.

You have to remove the instrument panel to replace lights, but check the dimmer switch and fuses, it would be rare for all the lights to fail at once.

The trim panel snaps into retainers, if missing a retainer you can get new ones from Toyota, also make sure the trim panel does not have any broken plastic parts.
