Removing instrument cluster

[wallyuwl]

Was cleaning my truck today and there are some spots that won't come off the instrument cluster. Seems to be dirty on the back side. Can I remove it to clean? If so, how does it come off?

Gently pull the guage pod cover off then you can access the guage pod trim ring, it just snaps out. You can then remove the clear gauge cover screws then the cover

So I did some digging. It appears these are sealed, so it is likely a defect in the plastic (I did notice this very early on in ownership). Seems like a kind of common problem. Some have gotten it replaced under warranty, so I will try that since I am still in B2B warranty. If they won't cover it, it looks like about $85 for just the lens.

So to change the plastic cover you don't need to remove the whole cluster?

No. You should be in and out in 10 min
