It is not necessary to remove the cluster. The oil gauge is held to the cluster mounting plate with two small screws. Remove the oil line and then the two screws from the back and the gauge will be free.

Bear, I notice that you have a ground wire from the top screw over the ammeter. I am wondering if I should do this. Where does it go to?

I still have to come up with a signal system. Have you had a chance to evaluate yours?
