'91 745 remove instrument cluster 700

QUESTION: how do I begin to pull the instrument cluster?

I'm stuck at step one staring at the dashboard. There's no trim bezel to look behind & no screw covers to pop off.

There are two likely holes left & right in the plastic; (one on either side of the trimpiece that's snug against the clear lens), holes that look like there might be a spring "latch" release hidden behind but so far all I've done is scratch something in there.

This is a 745 "made in Belgium" (mfg 03/91) wagon (B230F, automatic) if that makes a difference.

It is the 17th Volvo I've owned and done all the repairs and maint. on.... and I am stumped.

I took off all the underneath dash parts already to no avail. It is throwing speedo codes and the check engine light is on & I need to get it smogged. The speedo is acting crazy and the gas gauge doesn't register correctly. I yanked a replacement cluster from a turbo 745 and I'm hoping that I can swap it out and give this wagon back to daughter #5 asap.
