I just did this last week. I have the same radio in my '98 OBW. You have to remove the ash try and drink holder to get at the screws that hold the plastic cover surrounding the radio. Then you can access the six screws that mount the radio in the dash. With these removed you can pull the radio out far enough to unplug the antenna, power, and speaker wires (three plugs). With the radio removed from the car take it to a work bench with good lighting. You will see the four screws on the backet that holds the radio and cd player together. Remove these and slide the radio free of the bracket. Pull the volume, fade, and balance knobs straight out (the slide off). Now you have to remove the tiny screw on the left side of the clock display, becareful not to drop this. The only thing left holding the face place to the radio is two plastic tabs at the bottom. Push up on these and it will come free. With the face plate off you will see several light bulbs soldered to the circut board, the one for the clock is under the little metal box surrounding the display. I was able to gain access to it by gently prying up on the tab that sticks out. Melt the solder that hold the bulb assembly in and remove it from the board. You can replace the light with a mini-bulb from radioshack, (they are the same bulb used all over the car, heater controls, dash switches) or get one from the dealer. Put the little green cover on the new bulb, solder it back in place and reverse the process to put it all back together. Hope this helps, sorry guess I should have taken some pictures. It took me about an hour to do the whole process. Very nice being able to see what time it is and what radio station I'm on at night again. Like stated earlier, someone that specializes in radio repair might be able to fix this for a couple hundred bucks, or you can do it yourself for $2.05
