cant reach speedo cable.. help?

Im attempting to replace the light switch and foglight switch on my 87 iroc... to do so the repair manuel tells me that the cluster must be pulled.. ive removed the bezzel, and all of the retaining bolts and now im stuck... there is so little slack in the speedo cable that i can barely move it forward and inch... which makes it a bit tricky to try removing the clip back there... i dropped the steering column so i can just squeeze my hand back there but im still not having any luck... what do i do now? ive tried yelling at it but that just didnt work...
does anyone have a good picture of this clip.. can i get at it underneath... is there a screwdriver way to do this?
