Yes they are (at least, they are on all my RK05's). It's easiest to remove
the entire front panel from the drive (4 Phillips screws), when you can
trivially see the PCB that holds the switches and the lamps. The lamps
plug into little sockets on the PCB - just pull them straight out.

We call these lamps T 1 3/4 (That's 'T' one and three quarters) bi-pin
bulbs in the UK. No idea what they're called elsewhere.
