ARC Ref75 SE meter light flickering, ack

I love this amp and I love ARC, but I'm sad one of the (seemingly) four meter lights on the face is flickering. Sad enough that rather than investigate immediately and ruin my listening session, I switched off the meter lights. Yet it's on my mind. 220 hours. It's a baby!

I know there's some ARC wizards here who can probably tell me: Are those lights embedded in the meter "part" and perhaps removable from the front? Surely I won't have to inflame my lower back by shipping my amp to Minnesota for a light, right? 

BTW, while rig still sounds fine without the meter lights on. Ha.

I have the REF-75 se ... and run it with the lights off. Sounds better that way. Same for all of the display lights in all of my ARC gear.    

Do you have a local tech that you trust? If so, it would probably be a lot easier and cheaper than sending it back to ARC just for an LED replacement.
