All you can do, IMO, is to replace the bulbs with LEDs. There's currently a thread on this forum discussing exactly this; the bulbs are a common, standard size though polarity must be considered. Anything else would likely require permanent modification to the fascia (dash).
Only way I know to replace them is on my back under the dash. IIRC, they're screw-in; the old incandescents should have the type printed on them somewhere.

The stock bulbs are E10 2.2 filament 2500k and barely light up the directional at night.
If your car is negative, get an E10 one watt forward firing led light bulb. Bright white, 5000-6000K
I'm using the E10 Superstar with heatsink super white Led Bulbs. Photo below. I got them from this site:
