Instrument cluster removal

Remove speedo cable, remove wiring for wiper switch and headlight switch. It should pull out enough to remove the dash wiring plug.

If it’s floor shift, it should come out at this point. If it’s column shift I would loosen the column bolts and drop it down. You don’t have too, you can shift into 1st and then wiggle it out, but it’s tight and a high chance of cracking old plastic.
