Removing the instrument cluster is straightforward as it is secured to the dashboard with snap tabs. It is sufficient to lever along the lower edge to release the tabs, taking care not to damage the dashboard.

Once the instrument cluster is extracted, disconnect the connector at the back by releasing the locking mechanism. It is advisable to use a plastic lever instead of a screwdriver to avoid scratching the dashboard and to avoid excessive force that could damage the cluster itself.
