Has anyone ever found a way to get the bulbs replaced in the Omori boost gauges? I've had a 52mm electric one for years and both bulbs are now out.

My omori did the same thing for the 2nd time. Gauge was replaced 2X because it wouldn't zero. And then the lights stopped working, somgauge was only good during day. Dealer wanted $50 to fix. On porsche site, found protocol for servicing in older in dash gauges. This got me started. GENTLY, with large jewelers screw driver I pushed back crimped bezel and removed it giving access to gauge. Went to radio shack and bought 2 small bulbs. Soldered in bulbs and adjusted position to correspond to old position. They are longer than originals, so tilted slightly. Cost about $4 and 1/2 hour.

I have not pulled it out yet, but was under the impression that there was access from the rear

Yes, the only way inside. Remember the bezel butts up against the pod so nothings visible
