Default Wheel Bearing S500

Does anyone know how difficult it is to do a rear wheel bearing job on a 2000 S500? I also need to remove my instrument cluster, any suggestions?

The rear wheel bearing is difficult to replace, and the cluster is pushed in really tight. You need to pull really hard using special hooks.

Thanks for the response dondas. Theses hooks you are talking about do they slide into the 2 small openings on the cluster itself in the front on each side? Is the cluster attached by anything? Last question, do you have any idea what the hooks look like?
Thanks, Johan
