So I have a problem seeing the speedo and when I use the signal light it flashes in the speedo. So I know it is wired wrong. I just cannot figure out how to get the gauges out of the cluster. Any idea's or assistance would be great. Thank you. _________________ Cheers;

Instructions found here worked for me.

It's a PITA ( for me at least) to get the speedo cable undone. Everything else is pretty straightforward. _________________ 1982 931- Stock with MBC at 8psi
Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it. |

Push them from behind. They just slide out with some force, make sure to remove the speedometer cable first.
You can also swap the speedo and tach to have the tach front and center  _________________ Stefan

Don't even bother reading the speedo anymore, just use the tach. I know 3200 rpm is 60mph and call it good  _________________ 1977 Porsche 924 - sold
