The two electrical connectors have the security tab in the center of the plug.
The last (first?) thing you gotta worry about is the speedo cable "clip."
This white plastic clip keeps the speedo cable end securely in place.
Be patient, as this clip spins around in circles.
Don't mangle or pry this clip with force, as once it's damaged, the speedo cable end will end up popping out of place.
Sometimes, you can go in under the dash and snake your hands upwards to the back of the instrument cluster if you've got small hands.
Having a good flashlight will help here.
Remove any ducting, panels, and the steering column cover before starting...
