You will have to pull the cluster. This is never fun, no matter what vehicle you are working on.

See this thread, look down 8 or 9 posts for instructions: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s....php?t=196821&

The instrument cluster (panel) is the portion of the dash that contains all the instruments, guages, indicator lights, etc immediately above the steering column.
