You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 85032AG72A fits your vehicle.

Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. If the vehicle is equipped with a tilt steering column, lower the column to its lowest position. Remove the instrument cluster trim bezel. Detach the instrument cluster assembly by removing the mounting screws, noting that the number and location of the screws may vary by model, and then pull the instrument cluster out of the instrument panel. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the backside of the instrument cluster by locating the release tabs, depressing them, and unplugging the connectors, keeping in mind that not all release tabs are the same type or in the same location on all cluster connectors, then carefully remove the cluster. Installation is the reverse of removal.

This is a difficult procedure for the home mechanic. There are many hidden fasteners, difficult angles to work in, and many electrical connectors to tag and disconnect. We recommend that this procedure be performed only by an experienced do-it-yourselfer. During removal of the instrument panel, make careful notes of how each piece comes off, where it fits in relation to other pieces, and what holds it in place. If you note how each part is installed before removing it, getting the instrument panel back together again will be much easier. It is not necessary, but it is suggested to remove both front seats to allow additional working space and lessen the chance of damage to the seats during this procedure.
