removing gauge cluster... no luck

[xpl0sive]

hey guys, i was trying to get my gauge cluster out in order to stop that annoying brake light warning, and ended up almost stripping the two screws near the steering wheel cause they are in there so damn tight... am i doing sometihng wrong or did the crazy germans do that on purpose to stop poeple from pulling the clusters?

right tool? as in a phillips screw driver? ha yeah i've tried all different sizes too so it doesnt strip but the screws are just way too tight... and the brake light warning comes on cause i've got LED tail lights... i found an article on audiworld that turns off the warning but you have to do it from the back of the cluster... any one know any other way to remove the warning? maybe like a relay or something?
