Idiot Cluster Electrical Issues

Righty! I'm bored this evening in Southwest MO, so I decided to remove some electric components, and have a soldering party. Here's what I find.

Wanting to un-bolt the steering wheel, so I could get at my bunked wiper switch, I see not 1, but 2 of the steering wheel bolts have been completely stripped. So, I'm SOL for now about replacing the wiper switch, until I can grind the bolt out or whatnot.

Lucky for me, I have a spare ECU to solder on. Supposedly it's in good shape... but hell... nothing better to do @ 4:30AM in southwest Missouri. ( Both ECU's are N350's, if anyone is looking to buy )

Now, once I remove my idiot-light clusterfuck I take a peek @ the curcuit board. We've got 3 diodes that are broken off (D1, D9, & D10) 3 burnt out lights, missing 2 others, and there's like, a jumper going from one side to the other....

I'm not good with schematics... anyone w/ the FSM care to tell me which Diodes I need to buy so I can repair this damned thing???

All I can say is.... WHO DOESN'T LOVE BUYING A USED CAR???

you don't need to remove the steering wheel to get the cluster surround out. Just remove the plastic steering column surround... then its:

3 screws on top.. two on the bottom, unplug four plugs and the whole thing lifts up between the steering wheel and the dash.
