[Yaesu] YS-60 problems

I have two YS-60 watt meters and both are operational but have problems. The 
first one has the pilot lights burned out but still works with the 12V
supplied.  Its almost impossible to replace the small bulbs with my poor 
eyesight.  Can a small led or whatever be added.  I will just add to the 12V
coming in.

The second YS-60 lights up Ok but the meter movement with DC applied (needed 
to read watts out) is stuck on 1/3 scale on high power or off scale on the 
low power position.  It still reads high power Ok as well as peak.  There is 
nothing stuck in the meter and we decided it was magnatized.  Any way to 
demagnatize the meter?  The SWR part is OK with the meter reading zero 
correctly.
