Instrument failure

You have to take the top of the dash off and un bolt it from behind. On mine it's actually quite easy, heres how:
The top of the dash is secured on the drivers side by a screw just to the right of the dials as you're looking at them.
The passenger's side is secured via a nut attached to a really long bolt. This can be accessed by unscrewing the glove "pouch" thing on the passengers side. Once you've unscrewed it you'll have to feel around for what should be a 10mm nut.
After that it's plain sailing - the whole of the dashboard is very accessible. Do me a favour if you're sucessful, can you let me know what the wiring sequence is on the back of the fuel guage - mine seem to have got a bit messed up somewhere along the line.
Good luck
Boody hell fire!! Got my new guage, TMS mechanics very helpful in telling me how to get the dash top off - and the new guage is faulty as well!!!! TMS are sending another. Gen. Lee - My dash is bolted on differently to yours, but thanks for the post - I've left my bit of paper with the wiring sequence written on it, at home, so I'll catch up later. 
OK - WIRING SEQUENCE -
On the back of the fuel gauge the terminals are numbered 1,2,3 and there's two spade terminals to the lightbulb. The light should have - the right terminal, if you're looking at it from the back should have a red/white wire, and the left terminal -> black wire, which also connects via a spade to terminal3. T2 has a green wire, and T1 green/black.
By the way, Nubbin/dhwilson are one and the same..... spooky, huh!
