Instrument cluster replacement
Has anyBody replaced the instrument cluster from there 07 Camry or is there a how-to video on this site. The plastic window in casing the cluster is scratched up from previous owner and I want to replace it. Thank u

Re: Instrument cluster replacement
I looked into my Alldata account. It's hell of a job. Btw, part is called "combination meter assembley". You have to remove all plastic panels below and to the sides of it and steering wheel, which is the worst part as air bags are in there.
I'd say, it's same procedure as for regular Camry, so a $15 book from parts store should serve you well.
Even to remove just the cover for combination meter assey, you still have to remove SW and all panels around it.
Also, there are 3 different types of them, based on date car was fabricated.
TMC Made)(From 10-2006)
TMMK Made)(From 10-2006)
From 03-2006 to 10-2006)

Re: Instrument cluster replacement
Well, you are welcome and don't shoot the messenger. Entire lower dash section has to be removed along with some side panels. AND steering wheel. Why last has to be removed, I do not know, but that's what book says. Sort of same was said about radio removal for my then 99 Silverado - remove steering wheel to remove dash panel. While in reality steering column simply had to be lowered as much as possible and gear shifter moved to lowermost position and then panel could be wiggled around and above it. Just saying. Lower panels are all clips and few screws. Steering wheel, because of the air bag, I'd be real careful with.

Re: Instrument cluster replacement
See what I'm saying? Maybe it's because the removal guide is in dash removal section? As looking at that pic is seems like as if simple lowering the SW should clear the instrument cluster.
