The Four screws are it. unplug switches, take out screws, unplug big plug behind the tach, undo speedometer and remove. I think that's it, look for plugs I may have forgotten.

To get to the brake reservoir, all you have to do is remove the clustre COVER. Look thru the windshield and you'll see two rectangular indents where the clustre top meets the dash at the front. With both hands, pull up and back (towards you) at those indents and it'll pop off. It just snaps back on after you fill the reservoir.

Yes, and this can be accomplished while driving if your speedo cable falls off the speedometer and you don't want to get out cause its cold. :shock:
Just wait for a straight stretch and have your sexy assistant hold your hot cup of coffee !!! :D
