My DIC where the Speedometer is is very dim, not black enough. How hard of a job is it to replace?

I have not replaced bulbs but have removed the cluster to remove the dash top.
Removing the cluster:
* Remove lower panel.
* Remove tilt rod.
* Un-fasten two bolts (13 mm?) fastening the steering column to the dash structure and lower the column.
* Remove two screws on top underside of black dash trim.
* Remove two screws on top of dash trim.
* Remove black trim.
* Remove four 7 mm hex head bolts fastening the cluster to the dash structure.
* Slide the cluster out.
