Re: cant get speedo out
I've got a crappy pic of what it looks like. If you can peek back there and see the position of the clip, you can then use a screwdriver to hold it down while you pull it out. Make sure there's not any tension on it (or even push the cluster in a little) when you depress the clip or it probably won't release.

Re: cant get speedo out
Just pulled one from an 86 IROC last night. Drop the steering column, take the frame clip that hold the speedometer cable under the hood down by the exaust manifold off. Then you can push extra cable through the firewall so that you can easily reach the clip on the back of the speedometer.
