Miller 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2006 Hi. How do you remove the speedo cluster out of a e36. I have removed the two screws you can see at the top but is there any other screws i have missed? Do i just pull, or what is the best way to pull it out? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westy 614 Report post Posted October 2, 2006 You need to ease the top down and pull it towards you. You gotta be real carefull,so easy to damage. If you want to take it out completely you need to take the steering wheel off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dunno dirtysix, ive taken mine out a few times to get my new dash lights in, taken the whole thing out everytime without taken the steering wheel off, its a tight fit, take the 2 little screws out on the top and ease in toward ya, put your steering wheel all the way down, open door and take it out the right top side, un plug the wires as your pulling it out, then theres a series of clips to get into the cluster of things have fun!

Miller 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2006 320SHKBTE, do you know if buying white dash bulbs changes the colour of the speedo or not? Thanks Also how do you unplug the wires? They are in there very solid and i dont want to pull hard incase i break anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, they have a kinda sliding clip that pulls over the whole clip, quite easy just have a look and you should see a bit of a clip that you pull over the clip, hard to explain, but just have a look, you can see it easy! and no, changing the light bulbs will not change the colour, i suggest you get one like mine or the m3 which is like mine but with more fancy speedo marks, really cool, wasnt out when i got mine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
