I went to the mechanic and took pictures of the burned wires and melted
insulation.

They connect to a plug that inserts into the instrument cluster:

The plug goes into the instrument cluster here:

Two other shots of the burned/melted wires:
photos 3 & 4 (cluster-wires01.jpg and cluster-wires02.jpg)

Does anyone know what the name and part number is,
where I can find one, and the price range...

Also whether I'd have to remove the entire dash to replace it or
whether it can be done through the space where the instrument
panel was removed?

Any other tips and info would help too.
Thanks
