Default Removing the gauge cluster?

Long story short, I need to remove the gauges because I have a screwed up contact on one of the led's.(the light is flickering on and off)

I already removed the clear bezel and removed the 4 bolts around the cluster. The problem: The entire cluster is loose but is somewhat still connected to the rest of the dash. Anybody know the rest of the procedure?



As you can see, all the bolts are out from the cluster but somthing is still holding it back. Ive been researching and can't find anything helpful so im posting this on a couple sites. Any help would be great. Thanks

Mike

it has a big plug in the center of it. it should just pop loose. as long as you have all the bolts removed. just pull firmly and it will come out

there are no hidden bolts.
