HELP!! Instrument Cluster Reinstall

I removed my instrument cluster looking for a rattle. NOW... sadly... I can't get the cluster back into place. Who has experience with the basic positioning to get this back into the dash.

Thanks.

The worst of the dash rattles, for me, was below the center dash mesh screen speaker cover. I don't have a speaker there, but directly under where the speaker would be is a torx screw that fastens the speaker "bucket" housing to the aluminum support below it. This screw was loose and made a lot of noise. Tightening this down the rattle was gone. You don't have to pull the display, just remove the mesh screen on the center dash and pull the speaker if you have one then tighten down from above.
