instrments cluster removal 700 1989

I followed the following instructions obtained here:
740 Instrument Cluster Removal.
It's very simple. take a super slim screwdriver and remove the small plastic cap surrounding the small clock set knob on the left and the cap surrounding the dash light dimmer on the right. Under each of these is a phillips screw. Remove and pull the whole cluster out. Don't even need to remove the steering wheel. If it 's the first time out, the wiring will be held in tight behind the dash by plastic ties. You can cut these ties which will afford you enough room to twist the cluster around and replace any bulbs etc, or mark each electrical plug and unplug enough of them to give you the room you need.

In my Volvo model there is only one small plastic cap which is between a headlight deffoger and the antena switch and clot setting knobs.

Can anybody let me know if there is another way of removing iy?
Why is my model different?

    OK. On 1992 740 there are two slots, one on either side of the retainer cowling which surrounds the glass. Put screwdriver straight into slot and push spring clip that releases the cowling. Chilton directions don't say that. I'm looking for screws here and there...
