QUESTION: just the actual face part or the whole head and cluster?

Answer
Vicki, remove the entire cluster. This is a one piece unit. And is only held in by a few Phillips head screws. Very simple to remove. Very cheap to purchase another one as well. Check Ebay or Craigslist. Also, the local wrecking/dismantlers yard would be a great place to find one. Or call a Honda/Acura wrecking yard. There is one in my city!
