Take it to an Auto Electrician. If you botch the job yourself it will cost you around $2,500-$3,000 for a new cluster. Not a DIY job.

Search on YouTube. I'm sure you'll find it there.

Or try some of the Toyota or dedicated Hilux forums which will usually offer sound advice if the subject has been covered before.

To build a car, a light globe is hung from a sky-hook travelling along a line. Then the dash is built around that and then the car is built around the dash. At least that the way it seems when you try to replace a dash globe or a speaker.

They are generally quite easy to remove, particularly now with the electronic speedo (no speedo cable)

Try this site https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f116/sr5-gauge-cluster-swap-how-pics-179106/ it should guide you through it.

Cheers

A big hammer will fix it.

Then you can go out and buy a proper ute.











Shhh I didn't say that.
