Why you removing them? wanna sell them and associated pieces? but from the start
remove steering wheel, give the horn panel a good yank to reveal a nut two screws up top gauge surround and two at bottom pull cluster forward through. top first unplug everything. undo all bolts on the back. 8mm from memory. black surround with clear plastic should come away pull the backing off with the printed circuit still attached. think that's all then you should have access to the encono and ext temp. if you do wanna sell them and the outside sensor with wiring and vacuum hose let me know. will do a deal with some blanking panels i have for there.

Thanks Logan, that sounds easier than I thought it would be.
I'm removing them from my GLE before I sell it to my brother then fitting them to my GLEi SE because a top spec car like that deserves the extra gauges |
