2nd on removing bezel and cluster without removing the dash pad. You will have to remove several things under the steering column because of how they fit together in layers. Depending on year, there may be a fiber optic cable from a cluster bulb to, IIRC, the ashtray.
Thanks!

Thanks for the info. It's the original pad, 35K original mile truck....
