Can you tell the rest of us how you did it, just in case there's someone on the forum that needs to do the same?

talking to myself through the posting is actualyl kinda stupid but yeah sure ill tell u nhow i did it, after much studying over the cluster and all ... most postings arent really specific to me and even pictures got a lil confusing .. well basically all the guages have like 2 screws keeping the guage in place and the back of the guage cluster haves a circuit board which also holds screw, but in fact those screws are the actual screws that keep the guages connected to the board... which looked very confusing to me at first, so u have to unscrew the screws from the circuit board to get hte gauges out.. i hope that does it .. if osmoene get lost just pm me
