Sorry I forgot this wasn't just a 3rd gen forum...

Alright I really cant help ya out but if I were you i'd look around 3rd gen sites, like www.thirdgen.org which is a really helpful site for your thirdgen, if you look around im sure there was an article that I saw on there that helped out with the cluster and stuff, cant remember what it said so look around and goodluck!

there's 4 small silver colored bolts that hold that part in, 2 on top, 2 on bottom, you hafta lower the bottom dash panel underneath the steering column to get to the other 2.

There is an article about replacing the dash lights with LED's. I'm thinking about doing that. My brother told me about a site where I can get 6,000 micro candela LEDs for 50 cents a peice... I just can't remember what it was...

im thinking there has to be some small screws in there u just havent seen, most clusters ive seen in many cars has them holding the display in place

geno nailed it

Remove the black instrument cover (multiple torx screws), remove the 6 or so 1/4" hex head screws holding the lens on. Down at the bottom where the "idot" lights are there are 2 nuts (10mm) on studs, remove them. Drop the driver side kick panel and usng a screwdriver depress the speedometer cable retainer and remove the cluster.

don't i always...

so long as its passed out and wearing a skirt ;)

hmmm, forgot about the speedo cable, i cant remember from when i took mine out, will that actuallly hold the unit inplace????

yea, i didn't think of the speedo cable either because....well.....I don't have one. :D

and seeing that he has an 87....he probably does.
