abs light removal

I'm at work for the afternoon, and I don't have much time to figure this out but im sure its been done a couple times. I need to know the easiest route to the light bulbs behind the dash on my 2008. I don't want to waste time pulling of panels and breaking tabs I don't need to. So what is the fastest way to yank out unwanted bulbs in a couple hours?

Remove kick plate under steering wheel, the metal plate under that. 3 screws above the gauges. Radio bezel. 4 screws on the gauges. However the more i think about it I think the abs light is a smd led in 04+

Edit: Ya 99% sure abs light is a led sooo its not a simple bulb removal. Plus it will still throw a abs code even if the light is disconnected.

That's ok I will likely just cover it up somehow so I can't see it. I just need it gone so I don't get bs on a safety inspection, thanks for the quick response
