you know what I found out that was easier to do, I took the steering colum plastic apart allowing me to pull the plastic infront of the guage cluster out. remember when you pull it , pull it straight back towards you =-)

You have to pull with an unreasonable amount of force (straight back, like he said).

I removed mine and painted it, once you get the screws out just pull straight back really hard.
