Instrument cluster loose?
Today I noticed that I can wiggle the instrument cluster with my hand. Is everybody else's like that? I want to make sure I don't have a missing screw or something.

I don't think it's anything to worry about. The instrument cluster is rubber mounted to the mounting bracket.

Just went out to the garage and tried mine. It moves about 1/4" back and forth. About what I'd expect for a rubber mounted cluster. There's no looseness to it, just the flexing of the rubber.

That's exactly what mine does. I figured it was supposed to be like that but wanted to make sure with everyone else.

"They all do that!" Where have I heard that before? (Dealer-speak.)
