That circuit does not involve the instrument cluster it self, apart from lighting up the clocks when the side lights come on. The stalk that controls the lights has its own plug and the fault could be either there, the stalk itself or the head light relay.

The relay is before the fuses in the circuit so if you get 12V at the headlight fuses then it is ok and you need to check the stalk, if no 12V at the fuses then its the relay.

I dont know where the relay is in the GTs but, main engine bay fuse box is the first place I would look.
