attempting to take out the instrument cluster

oh dident think of trying pliers. i dont think all that well in the morning. im guna give that a shot on the wiper switch. the light switch i figured out you can stick a flat head in the middle since the shaft comes out. the worst part is the needle on the amp gauge somehow broke off while i was removing the cluster. so now i need to put a new one in from another cluster. luckily i did have one on hand. the even more annoying part is my gauges work when i bench test them. so i might have to chase the wires and find the problem. which is going to be even more annoying!!!! on the bright side i needed to change my wiper seals and the drivers side is easily acessable now :cheers:
