remove 2 plastic clips at top of cluster then you will see 2 screws under the clips.
Just pull the cluster out and remove maybe from memory 3 wiring harnesses from the back. Then you'll have the cluster out and just unclip the plastic tabs to remove the fascia you'll see how easy it is once its out just maybe use a fork to help leaver the pins of the fascia, Just lift the dials off the cluster they will have a few little clips on the outer,They will just pop off with some pressure. Hope this helps.

Mate, after the screws are out they are a pretty tight slide in fit, but sliding out there are parts that can catch.
I had to slide bits of thin bendable plastic between the speedo n dash to get mine out as they are designed to slide IN easy, but don't always slide OUT as easy. |
