Marantz 2275 Bulb Help

I am upgrading from a Marantz 2235b to a 2275 because I just got some Harbeth speakers & need more power.
The 2275 is way different, can anyone give me some advice on how to switch out all of the bulbs? It looks like I may need to take the faceplate off for the dial bulbs, does that give me access to the selector bulbs? (Aux, AM, FM, etc)?
Thanks, Nut
If I can get at these I will document the process with pictures for those who follow.
 
I just did my 2275 last week.

Download the service manual here:
Marantz 2275 - Manual - Stereophonic Receiver - HiFi Engine

The dial fuse type are easy.
The meters a bit more work.
The dial indicator not bad.
The selectors are a lot of work and you need to be able to solder/ de-solder.

Replace the vellum while your in there I bought a sheet at an art supply store
You can also find it pre cut on the auction site.

It took me about 2 hours.
 
I have the service manual and it is less than useless for bulb replacement. I have all of the bulbs and new vellum having replaced bulbs in my 2235b- but this is way different than that unit.
Thanks anyway.
I was looking more for a how to access these bulbs.

To replace the bi-pin input,stereo,etc bulbs you have two options.

1) Remove the knobs, faceplate, and lens, use desoldering wick and needle nose
to remove the old bulbs while carefully avoiding burning the tuner string.

2) Remove the front of the chassis.

Not sure how you find the service manual useless? It has exploded views
that illustrate everything you need to answer your questions.

Good luck
