Gauge Cluster help

So i have been wondering why my gauge lights go off after a while of driving so i pulled out the gauge cluster to find that a bunch of my bulbs in the back are missing(some of the bulb holder things too). Also the way the guy bought my gauge lights is with the wiring connected to a gauge plate instead of just replacing the bulbs. Now should i just buy a new gauge cluster or replace the bulbs and cut the wire connecting to the gauge plate? Or any other ideas?

So the cluster's lighting has been modified?

Pics for reference would help a lot. If its just that its missing bulbs and holders, go to the dealer and buy new ones. That seems to be pretty straight forward...

Ok so these wires......

are connected to the gauge plates. The gauge plates have like an extra tab that the wires connect to. I think its like a sticker the guy i bought it from put over the gauges.

Oh and as you can see the dumbass also took out bulbs like the check engine light, seatbelts, etc.

i had a feeling it had those glow gauges.

go to the junkyard and look for the sockets for the bulbs. if you need some, i could sell you some from my old cluster.

are they stickers? lol id just cut those wires and like coy said get some bulbs for the ones your missing, check to see if the three main bigger ones across the middle have bulbs because those are the ones that light up the gauges.
