I cant get the cluster out of the dash. the cluster feels like its been glued into the dash. i had to unbolt the dash to be able to get behind the cluster and now i cant get wires disconnected from the cluster. they r the only thing holding the dash on the car rite now. i hoping that i just screwed up somewhere and that its not glued and i have to cut it out.

how EXACTLY do u unplug the wires from the back of the cluster? its a '83 with the big fuel gauge and idiot lights. the cluster is goin to be replaced with one from a '92, so if i have to cut it, its not a big deal. i would like to sell it on ebay to make up for some of the cost of the new cluster. any help is more than needed..

Probably the speedo cable holding it in place. Squeeze the clip near the cluster to remove the cable from the rear of the cluster. The plugs in the rear also have clips to squeeze to remove them.

 

i found what was holding it in.. i forgot the 2 stamped nuts in the bottom corners and the sides were "glued" in with something. once i finally got that out, it didnt leave much room to get the speedo cable out.

i hate fixing someone elses mistakes... expecially on MY CAR!!!
