Default Instrument Cluster Rmoval


Ok, I followed the instructions for Skreem replacement. However , I need to pull the instrument cluster all the way out. I have rodent damage behind it. I'm not sure how to release the wiring connectors. I don't want to break anything. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

OKAY i FIGURED OUT, THANKS

Believe it or not , after repairing those four wires everything works. No more engine light, no more high speed fan , no more cluster gauges going up and down , no more 36F degree reading. I'm shocked.
