Preee Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 If it's the same as the Focus , then lift the cover above the steering column , there you should see two Usually T20 hex screws , remove then , drop the steering wheel down and pull on the cluster , it should come out and then un-clip the wiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D13 HPD 95 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 Does the cover just lift off?? And cheers thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preee Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Its the section between the dials and the top trim of the steering , yes it just lifts up. (Not the top of the steering cowling) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preee Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 It just sits there you can use your fingers to pull it up, if its the same as the Focus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iNath Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 The bit of dash trim above the steering wheel below the clocks, pull it directly towards you, that reveals 2 screws you need to take out. At the top of the clocks, the 'ceiling' in front of your trip computer has a round circle cover that can be levered out with a tiny flat head screwdriver. That's the 3rd screw under there that you need to take out. Then pull clocks towards you :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
