Well, its a bit complicated as you have an air bag wheel. First thing is to get the air bag off safely. You don't want to do this. Take it to the dealer and get them to pull the air bag. Then you have to remove th instrument cluster by removing a bunch of other stuff such as the drivers under dash panel, the steering wheel and the check control panel to get the cluster out. Its held in by screws and has a number of electrical connectors attached to it.
Once you have wormed it out, the board is inside. Check the FAQ's for complete procedure. It is not a job of the faint of heart - moderately difficult and very fiddley. If you decide to do this, use precautions against static discharge. The board in the cluster are very static sensitive.
