Winter is on the horizon but I took 3 nice rides in December. I noticed a bulb was out in the cluster. I was able to pull all the plastic of with out breaking it . I was able to pull the cluster so that I had access to the two electrical connectors but for the life of me I could not figure how to pull them off. I removed the neg connection on battery to avoid shorting it out. I said F.... it and put every thing back all is good except now the rpm number is only showing part of number graph works.
I have the bulb kit but I guess in the spring I will take it apart and bring to a mechanic to pull the connectors then I will replace all bulbs but something else may go wrong.
If the mechanic removes the connectors can I drive car home? Then I can replace all bulbs and if all is screwed up I can have cluster rebuilt. Is the derivable with cluster not connected. Thanks for any help.

Yes it is drivable without the instrument cluster. Check out batte.com. He does a lot of rebuilds for C4 instrument clusters
I checked his site that's were i purchased his led bulb kit seems like an honest guy.
