IIRC, you must remove the cluster. Once removed, you'll see a release lever for the ****.

The **** is just held on with friction. There's an angled metal piece that allows it to slide on, but not pull off. You can either try to pull harder, or get a small angled screwdriver and get it into the right spot on the back side. Once you find that spot, it'll release the angled metal piece and it'll slide right off.
