it actually pretty simple. at least on a 80. i would assume its the same on any fb. 2 screws in the top to take off the cover. a few goin straight into the front. and might be a couple underneath (cause i remember taking my heating tube off that i havn't put back in.) then it should pull out.

There is a big fat cable that clips onto the back of the speedo that you forgot to hook back up...let me dig up Alien's pic to see if he shows it there in "picture Z"...

No, you can't see it in his pic, after all....
