High beam light on dash not working

Hi All,
My high beam light on the dash is not working, is this an easy fix?
When I say easy I mean is it as easy as taking the speedo/rev counter head out and replacing the bulb or is it a bit deeper?

Thanks Dano, So do the LED's just push in or do they have to be soldered in place?

They push in. Try and get a normal bulbs, not an LED because they need a resistor (or something). 

The ones I used had a longer 'leg' on one side. Unfortunately I didn't take a photo of it. I got it from Maplins but they've closed down now so any decent electrical shop should be able to help you.

The blue you see is a cover with a white bulb underneath. I got a blue bulb as a replacement, I think…. I did mine in 2013.

I tried changing the LED in the dash but still nothing, I have on occasion seen mine come back to life, so leads me to think it is the stalk itself.. so keep that in mind too!
