hey im trying to instal new gauges and i need to pull off my guage cluster

in order to do that there is the plastic trim that goes in front of the guages cluster. however i cannot pull it past the left knob thing(the knob that adjusts your steering wheel up or down) and the ignition.

so i see two bolts that are attached to the knob thing. im guessing i have to remove them in order to pull off the trim without breaking it is that how???

thanks to all for help
