there should be a casing around the shifter if you carefully pop it off with a screw driver you should be able to reach the bulb and holder

RE: light bulb blown out.

You can remove the trim around the shifter assembly by pulling straight upwards to release the plastic retaining clips. See first diagram below. The gear indicator is then easily removed by removing the 3 or 4 screws as shown in second diagram. Indicator can then be raised enough to allow easy removal of the bulb.
