Removing gauge cluster?

How do I remove the gauge cluster on a 1948 truck. The wiring behind the dash is a mess. What do I need to do to get it to where I can work on it?

If I remember correctly the gauge cluster has some tabs on it that fit over studs coming from the backside of the dash with nuts on them. I don't remember how many. If you feel around the perimeter of the cluster you should be able to find them...
