I don't think you can remove the plastic - I'd love to be able to myself.  I
have cleaned inside with a Q-tip and some mild cat shampoo of all things and
then lots of rinsing.

Subject: Instrument cluster - clear plastic cover removal

I have my van's instrument cluster out (repairing the odometer, and epoxying
the cracked plastic
shroud around the speedo housing).

I'd like to clean things up as best I can and it looks as though the curved
clear plastic that
covers the front side of the speedo and tack/clock can be removed.  Does
anyone know how to do
this as I certainly don't want to crack the clear plastic.

I tried the archives, but didn't find anything with the search terms I used.
thanks.   Malcolm
