Instructions for Dismantling the Instrument Cluster

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Onboard computer

To easily dismantle the instrument cluster, it is suggested to first remove the steering wheel to gain more working space; once the steering wheel is removed (be careful not to rotate the airbag tape), undo the four Torx screws that secure the plastic trim around the dial and remove it; at this point, simply undo the three screws securing the instrument cluster (two on the sides and one in the centre) to extract it from its housing. This operation is very simple and does not require special tools or knowledge.
