Cluster circuitry question

I tried to serch for the answer and didn't come up with anything so I will post a thread.

I just bought a new cluster backing from DC's. I am going to do the switch out this weekend and was wondering when i take off my old circuitry panal to put on my new backing do I need to glue it down with anything? I know you guys are probably laughing but I dunno and don't wanna do it wrong.

Thanks GUYS

No, you don't glue it. It will be self-explanitory when you take the cluster out.
Don't worry, it's an easy swap. Just be careful, after 30+ years sometimes the circuit boards get brittle.

Don't put too much pressure on the white background. Its brittle and will crumble. Its not plastic! Be gentle!
