You have to remove the fascia in order to get the instrument cluster out.
Because of the amount of work involved, you'll want to make sure that any used speedometer you install has had the odometer drive gear replaced. It's worth doing a site search on "odometer gear" or "Odometer". There have been a few good discussions about it over the past few months, including a link to a guy who manufactures drive gears out of more modern materials than VDO originally used.
Here's a link to the twnsaabs.com page on instrument cluster replacement.
