Removing dust inside instrument panel

Is there an easy way of getting rid of all the dust and dirt that gets in behind the clear bezel in front of the instrument cluster? How much of the dash do I need to take apart?

Thanks in advance.
 






it takes a good bit to take it part. Not difficult but more time that most would suspect. You take out the raido/heat/ac first then the panel below the steering wheel (hood release first) then the i think it is the guage covers. Would take about and hour I would think maybe a few minutes more the do it all and clean it up, Just keep track of your screws, Dont want to be missing some or have any loose like i do in my head

... just want to add that be careful when cleaning the clear lens. They scuff up very easily.
 






Thanks for the info. Anyone see a problem in just taking the clear plastic cover off and leaving it off so that cleaning in the future will be a snap? Besides, there are all sorts of swirl marks on it already.
