Re: Instrument Cluster Removal

If you care about the paint get some blue tape on all the surfaces next to the bezel. They are a very tight fit at the top, on mine I had to get a very thin screwdriver (same one I use for pulling wood trim) to get the top started out without damaging the bezel of dash. Once it gets out about 1/4" or so it will slide right out. The big red wires to the ammeter might hold it back too if they don't have any slack. The harness is in a clip just below the speedo cable connection. Undo that to get slack in the wires.
