Default Perspex cover infront of dials - Can it be removed?

Has anyone managed to remove the perspex cover infront of the speedo, rev counter dials? I have an imprint of what I guess is a size 10 Czech footprint on the inside of the perspex which although slightly amusing, gets on my nerves every time the sun shines on it at the right angle.

Seems a bit pathetic to ask the dealer to do something with it but it does annoy me that I can't clean it.

Yes it can be taken off but the cluster needs to be removed first.

There is a bit of a method to remove the Dash Pod. It involves releasing two clips on the top with two long thin 'tools'. Also got two Torx screws to remove.
