Want The Is-f Needles Look, How Do I Take Off The Cluster?
I've been told it's a simple LED bulb behind the cluster needles. Now, how do I remove the cluster? I've checked Google, searched on here and other forums but couldn't find a step by step removal. Thank you in advance.

I know there were 2 screws on top of the gauge cluster frame. Once I remove that, I know on the old IS300 you just remove the cluster frame and there's like 2-3 screws inside to remove the entire cluster itself. BUT, the IS250 looks like the cluster frame wouldn't just come right off. Do I need to remove the lower panels? I didn't see any screws holding it.

It's not just two screws on the top. There are some on the bottom too and you have to remove the trim under the steering wheel to get to them. I posted this exact same question yesterday...

^^^^its been done already..javyLSU tackled this with some other ISF peices in his IS350..
Regarding the odometer, mileage is recorded on the gauge cluster, so when you replace a speedo, it will require adjusting (which can only be done ONCE).
Everything works with the exception of the oil temperature gauge (which is what I wanted the most). Apparently there's no lead from the oil temperature sensor to the gauge cluster - this is something I might try to tackle in the future.
