More so how to get the damn thing off? I got the two tiny bolts on the bottom half of the clear plastic that goes over the tach/speedo instrument panel, but I can't find or see where it's hooked up at the top. I want to take it off to clean underneath it.

You have to remove the whole instrument cluster from the car to remove the clear plastic lens. At least, that's what I had to do to get the one out of my GT. Can't remember where the other screws are, only that I had to remove the whole unit. Once I got it out, I cleaned them with mild dish soap, dried them thoroughly, then used Meguiar's Plastic Cleaner and Plastic Polish. Someone had opened a can of soda pop in the car at one time, and had gotten some on the lens, etching it. I had to work on it quite a while, but finally got most of it out. You can't even see it when it's back in the car.

You can get off the cover with dash in car. take out the bottom screws, and if i remember right, there are a few little plastic tabs at the top. You have to work them out. Ive had mine and lisas out before.
It was harder to get them back in.
