You see my problem is i just got a sports Cluster from the wreckers the other day and the plastic clear lens that goes over the top was broken, so at the moment i do not have one on my Cluster.

I have an old GLI Cluster but the clear plastic lens is stuck to the black frame and any attempt to pull it off cracks the plastic, has anyone had this problem?

Is anyone on this site able to make something similar for a small fee to help me out of this situation? Also Ford wants $78 for it so i laughed in my head then left.

the plastic and black frames should be interchangable

there are seveal little screws on the back of the cluster you have to remove first before you can seperate the cluster from the cover

I have grabbed another frame and clear lens off another sports cluster from U-Pull it hopefully this is easy because the part of the old frame have been glued onto the cluster

It was a bit of a pain in this, but when you undo the screws it all losens up anyway !
