I've disassembled the dash roughly four times, and it's no picnic. It's also no like rebuilding a transmission, either. I can definitely tell you some shortcuts... Biggest thing is KEEP UP WITH THE SCREWS. Twice, I reassembled the dash only to have a screw (yes, one) leftover and for the life of me, I swore everything was buttoned up properly. On the following disassembly, I found it. So, label them if you must... whatever keeps them straight. Work slowly, methodically, and don't be scared to bend a little plastic... the shroud around the instrument cluster is a b!tch to remove.
bhalbeck -- I will swing by Steve's tonight to check the cluster's clear plastic. I'm pretty sure it's the one from my spare set of Crossfire/AMG gauges, and the plastic was in outstanding shape. But, I also had two clusters floating around at one point so I'll definitely need to double check that for ya
