Tried to change the instrument cluster on my 2011 ranger and it would not allow me to shift the truck into gear. Had to put the original back on.

How do you get to the radio wiring? Mine shorted out near the top of the dash behind that black box with the two connection harnesses. The radio bundle is just behind that. I can see bare copper wire. Can't get to it without taking the top of the dash off all the way across the windshield.

I was hoping you would take the rest of the Dash cluster out to show how to replace a blown Dash bulb I got a 2011 Ranger and got no idea how no videos available

It's easy enough...just remove the 4 ea 7mm screws (2 each side) on the cluster. Pull the wiring harness out disconnecting 2 plugs from the cluster entirely. The bulbs are accessible from the back of the cluster, they twist off. Each bulb is in a socket. If you have slim fingers, you can get the twist sockets out easily. If your fingers are a bit larger, use needlenose pliers. Pull the bulb out of the socket. You will need to do some research, but I just completed this process on my 2006 XL and they are Sylvania 2721's. I went in and replaced everything. You're now at the point where you can swap out/in bulbs and just reverse the process for re-assembly. Best of luck.

The bottom knee kick panel (Lower steering column cover) has 2 clips at the top that clip into the dash, but one of mine snapped! Does ANYONE know what those little retainers are? I cannot find them anywhere!!! I saw one Reddit forum where they were referred to as bayonet clips but that turns up no results, Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is way too much work, and I only want to vacuum out the dust between the bezel and the instruments. The video does not make it clear if the bezel is ever separated from the cluster. In fact, what was accomplished by anything you just did?
