    If Jeff's car has an adjustable steering column...and it should...the cluster comes out by moving the column all the way towards the driver's seat, undoing the cluster's harness connections and rotating it left with the steering wheel. No need to mess with the airbag or steering wheel. But disco the battery.

    Be careful as I scuffed the bezel doing it this way.
