The dash cluster or the triple cluster in the middle? They are both easy.

Triple cluster you get a flat-head screw driver and pry off the aircon vents from the left, and unclip the wire harness for the hazard light button. Then undo the two screws holding the pod. Slide the pod forward towards you. Easy as that :)

The dash cluster is also easy, just a few more screws. You will need to undo the steering column surround as well. Just have a look for all the screws holding it on, I forget how many there are. I think it's 5 underneath but I'm not sure. Then undo the screws holding the trim around the outside of the dash. Then I think there are 3-5 screws holding the dash itself in place. It's really just a case of looking for all the screws holding everything on and then sliding it out. Been awhile since I've done it so I forget where they all are, but it's very straight forward.

lower the steering adjustable colum first, remove screws as above, remove the collar around the turn signals makes it easier to get out, unplug the connection on the rea while tilted forward, then slide towards the middle of the car, while the gauges are on angle face down, tight but it will pass once the wiper switch is down. install reverse of above

dont break off the tripmeter pin !!!

takes 5 min once you have dowe it twice..lol

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
