Yer bro, theres like 2 screws above the spedo and two next to the cigarette plug. undo them and it all just pops out! :) Id advise when/if you do this mod, mask off the indented area around the spedo cluster thing and leave it or paint it black or something because when the sun hits it it reflects back onto the plastic and you can hardly see anything in the cluster.
