Easy... Remove the plastic dash trim.. Then couple of screws holding the clocks in.. Pull it out and unplug the cables from it.. Then refit the other one in reverse...

As sim said, there's 3 Phillip head screws holding the trim in place. Just above your clocks.
Then lower your steering wheel.
Pull the trim from the top of the Speedo, work your way round. As there held in with clips.
Once you have pulled the trim out, dissconnect the plugs from headlight adjuster and fogs, then remove plug from hazzard switch.
The pannel will come completly out now.
Then 2 Phillip head screws at top of clocks.
2 Phillip screws at the bottom left And bottom right.
Then pull the speedos out, then disconnect the 3 green plugs.
From there your done. Fit the new Speedo in reverse to removal mate

Not sure mate. Not taken 1 out that has cruise control, sorry
^ Should be behind the blank plate then if it is connected to the dash panel at all, you didn't hear any plastic breaking when you took yours out did you? The screw question is stopping me from taking mine out to replace blown bulbs, dont wantt to break the dash panel!

Nomate ive had mine out several times now and as long as u go slow and pop them slowly when u get to them its all good mate.
You know when ur on a clip as it obviously feels tight, just pop it out

i doubt it, just been looking online and cant see the cruise control having anything to do with the instrument panel/speedo's so should be cool.
ive got another set of clocks being delivered friday or saturday so i can make a video ect and pop a how to up if u want mate. Then you could see how the trim pops off

^ Yeh I can't see any reference to it in the ESM either, but someone who wrote this how to guide mentioned taking the screw out: http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/13487-how-to-fit-an-aftermarket-stereo-in-the-6th-gen/
Video would be cool mate, mostly interested in the that switch area.

i see what you mean...you aint gotta remove any of the switches mate.
if you pop the panel off you just unplug the power connectors from the back of all the switches.
