Thanks Paul. The positioning of the bulbs in the back of the PCB are as stated in my first post. Ignore the bit about taking out the wrong bulb as this was an error.
The best way to see the layout of the bulbs is from underneath. However, it may be easier to replace them by pulling out the instrument panel. I did this in the end as the panel bulbs are near the edge of the unit and not too difficult to get at. There is no need to disconnect any wires for this as all that is necessary is to pull the unit out (see previous posts on how to do this) as far as it will come and the brown base of the bulbs will be visible and accessible to the hand.

I managed to find replacement bulbs at autobulbsdirect.co.uk. They are R64122 B10D PC base panel bulb 12v 3W brown for £2.99 each. PP was £2.95.
