Disassembling the instrument cluster is a straightforward DIY task, but to access the mounting screws, you must first remove the lower trim of the dashboard. Start by fully opening the driver’s side door to remove the cover located on the side of the dashboard, then take out the screws securing the dashboard panel directly beneath the steering wheel.

Disconnect the steering wheel adjustment lever and lower it as far as it goes to create more working space to access the two mounting screws at the base of the instrument cluster. Once the screws are removed, pull it away enough to disconnect the connectors and complete the disassembly.
