Today’s Corvette technical question comes from Tom who owns a 1965 Corvette.
How do I remove the cluster from my 1965 C2 Corvette?
Answer: There is no step by step guide that I know of, but 1965 Corvette clusters are very easy to remove. You can start by disconnecting the battery. Then loosen the column and lower it. Once you have done that you can remove the speedometer (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=1580) and tachometer cables (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=1581). You will need to disconnect

the oil pressure line (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=2506) and make sure you have a little plastic cup under it so no oil gets on your carpet. Once you have done all of this, you can unscrew the dash. To do this unscrew all the perimeter screws around the top and the dash will come out. You will have to unplug all the electrical connectors as well. Once you have completed the following steps you should be able to remove the cluster from your Corvette.
