From memory....will cover the basics at least.
Inside the cowling, at the edge of the cluster lens, are two trim strips with a center joiner. Remove the screws and the trim strips
At the top of the cluster, at each corner, are two "blanking covers". Remove the covers to expose two cluster retaining screws. Remove the screws
The cluster can now be tilted and pulled away from the dash GENTLY far enough to disengage the two harness connectors at the back. Small hands help here.
With the wires disconnected you can pull the cluster away from the dashboard.
Lowering the steering 1/2" or so column will help. Loosen but don't remove the steering column nuts behind the under-dash trim panel
The printed circuit at the back of the cluster is delicate so be careful not to tear it
With the cluster removed you can disassemble it, remove the speedometer, and (hopefully) repair the odometers
This is a good time to clean all contacts, replace bulbs, and add a redundant cluster ground
Cheers
