you want to change what?the dash is held in by like 30 screws but you do not need to pull the glass for that.

Guy are you changing the gauge cluster or the entire dashboard, gaugle cluster shouldnt take you more then 10 minutes but the entire dashboard is a full day project.

[benie]

the gauge..thats what i wanna change..the gauge.

If it's your guage, just unscrew the 2 screws in the top of the black plastic piece that surrounds the gauge, then there are 4 screws holding in the entire assembly in the 4 corners. after you remove those 4 screws, you can just snap off the PLASTIC that covers the gauges. just BE VERY CAREFUL not to break the needles!!! i broke mine and it cost me $30 for a new gas/temp assembly!

yor describing how to take off a 96 cluster he has a 95, its a bit different, first unscrew the two top screws, then you have to lever out the hazard lights switch out, and then you disconnect that, now you should see one more screw where the hazard lights use to be unscrew that one, becarfull so that it doesnt drop, then you have to take the enitre plastic thing of with the vents, i suggest you start at one end and work to the other way, this thing is held by i believe four clips, use a bit of force but not too much cause it will snap, after you have the taken off youll see the gauge cluster itself is held by four screw unscrew those and then unplug the harness, and youre done. I dont think i missed anything but if i had can someone please add. Good luck man. Why are you changing it?
