    I have some dirt and ashes in the cluster inbetween the gauges and plastic window. Any idea on how to remove the front to clean?

    I take mine apart one or twice a year its easy just pop off the plastic piece on the bottom of the gauge and there are two torx holding the cluster in and just wiggle it out. and the there are two clips on the back. once it is out take out the torx holding on the class pop a few clips and just blow out the dust dont use a cloth you will scratch the glass and platic.
    hope this helps

    Unbelievable, thought I was the only one. I probably would have just stared at it for a few K more miles until it bothered me bad enough. Thanks for speaking up.
