the plexiglass is glued in..    to clean your cluster, just remove the
gauges..  speedo and tach..  4 screws in each.  then you can clean out behind them..
 i have cleaned many of them before..   just use a little piece of cotton
t-shirt.. wet it, and wring it out so it doesnt leave waterspots..   dont use
windex on the black plastic...it will make the black plastic on the cluster kinda
chalky..   just a clean damp rag..
