I forgot to add that once you get the instrument panel out, you will need to remove the 7 or 8 screws along the edges of the instrument panel's circuit board. Pull the board up and remove it. You should be able to "snap" the trip odometer reset lever back onto the silver bar of the speedometer and then feed it through the cluster's opening, put the screws back on and then reassemble the cluster in your dash.

The problem I see with trying to reinstall the lever with the cluster in is the amount of force. By forcing it in (i.e., pushing it in and angling it up), it *may* put some extra pressure on the fragile odometer tooth gear. When you remove the cluster, you'll be able to reattach the lever by pushing "up" on the reset lever of the speedometer without really having to "reset" the mileage... less force.
