you have to use a rotary tool around the edges and cut it off. it is very fragile and will take no horseing on it trust me.

is this the front cover on the gauge cluster? If so... S4s should be screwed onto the back of the cluster assembly, and S5s have some clips that allow it to snap out.

I was talking about the plastic cover over the speedo cluster... i know the screws on the back you can take out and then it seperates from the black/clear piece an then you have the cluster... i wanted to remove the clear peice of the black part.
