Here's a good walkthrough:

SQL Server 2005 is a bit different, because you don't have to install separately on all the nodes (the setup process runs in background on all nodes).

Sorry, I misread your question.

You just need to uninstall from control panel.

However, I would never reuse the same cluster for something else after uninstalling SQL 2005. I would rather go with a fresh windows installation.
