You also need to remove the speedometer too. There is a screw behind it (iirc) that needs to come out. It holds the actual HUD in. My biggest challenge was getting the actual HUD cover out. The one that runs the lenghth of the dash. Be careful because it can crack very easily.

Yeah, that damn bolt behind the IP cluster. And yes, that trim does tend to crack (mine is cracked as I type).
