Need help with my 92 Tempo.

Need help with my 92 Tempo.
#1. I'm trying to remove the dash but I can't get the gauge cluster out. There is a sensor in the center that I can't unhook. What do I need to do? I'm also having issues removing the entire headlight **** so I can take the dash out.
#2. I'm trying to install a piece together air intake kit from AutoZone. What filter's are people using and what do you do with the sensors that connect to the stock air box?
#3. If I unhook the emergency levers for the automatic seatbelts in the center, will I get a warning chime? My seatbelts don't work so I want to remove the levers.
#4. My gauge lights don't work, is this an easy fix or should i just run a separate switch and lights for it instead?
#5. I'm installing new seat covers, how do you remove the headrest?
Thanks I just got this car and want to make it enjoyable!

I can answer a couple but, not all.
#1) The "sensor" is probably not a sensor but, the speedo cable. It should have "pinch clips" on the sides or a cap that unscrews. As far as the headlight ****, reach under the dash, there should be a push button on the switch itself that will allow you to remove the ****. Then there will be a flat round nut with a couple notches or, a hex shaped nut to remove to get the switch off the panel.
#4) First check for a burned out fuse. If that is good, you are taking the dash cluster out anyway (refer to #1), replace all the bulbs.
#5) There should be a release button under the headrest at the seat top. Otherwise, it will pull out with a bit of force.
Hope these suggestions help.

Good idea, Hanky ... forgot to mention that!
