They aren't that hard. Buy the new lens from a vendor, NPD has them listed. Remove the cluster.

Get a large towel, lay the cluster down and remove the screws that hold it together on the back. Lay out everything so you know how it came apart and how to put it back together. Good idea to take a few "Digital pictures" of the rear of the cluster so you know how it looked "Before" you took it apart.

After you get the gauges out, replace the lens's. Make sure they are clean and watch for static electricity that will attrack all kinds of lint and stuff.

Use a very soft brush and sweep away any dust, lint, etc. Also a good time to touch up the gauge pointers, orange tips. If you do this use "VERY LITTLE" paint. It can effect how the gauge reads from the weight of the new paint, if you get alittle too liberal with it.

Put it back together and reinstall it in car.

Looks like new.
