That is VERY rare for 4 of them to be buggered, you do know that LED's only work one way as opposed to bulbs yeah?

look under car / motorbike 12v led bulbs it then expands with all the bulb types there around 40p-Ł1 each depending on colour and brightness and you can mix you colours if you waant instead of them being all the same

not quite mdf and centre console is 4 screws the heater controls are a bit fiddly tho the clocks are 8 screws a full change over take about 30-40 mins i have done a few now only takes me 15 mins max now to do a corsa b
anyhoo the guides are on here if not there the haynes haynes manual tells you how to strip things apart
