removing gauge cluster

[1slow_mk5]

Is it as simple as removed two screws at the top?
pull forward and disconnect the 3 connections in back?

To reply to myself, i was correct.
remove the two torx bolts , gently move top of cluster forward and bam thats it. Disconnect 3 cables in back.

Nice! What's the mileage of the new cluster you're putting in..?

Why are you removing it?

I scratched the screen and im getting something built to prevent it from happening again

Here is the film i installed. Now i can wipe it without scratching it!

One question did you have to remove the steering wheel to get the cluster out as I have a similar scratch to yours.

Nope. Theres plenty of room. Very easy to remove.

Hey when you reinstalled it, did you have any issues with guages showing data?

I’m having mine replaced and they’re in the waiting phase to hear back from their tech rep / manufacturer to inform them what to do.

They got it back in fine but they said “The cluster lights up, but nothing on the gauges works at this time.”

nope , all was ok ... but i did disconnect battery before and during cluster removal..
