VC Instrument Cluster Removal

[Ringomitch]

Hi all, trying to remove the instrument cluster from my VC wagon to get it refurbished but have run into some difficulty. Anyone know how much of the trim around the cluster needs to be removed to get it out? I've removed all the screws I can get to and am worried I'll crack the trim if I keep trying to pry it out.

you squeeze .. a little bit in the middle to extract the inner cluster trim
I did that and pushed a screw driver straight in the middle of the top and bottom
and then wriggle the trim out..
