I just got my silver reverse glow gauges today from procarparts. it was pretty cheap, with shipping and everything comes out to $13. I've seen the DIY from this board but still having problems. I can't even remove the black trim around the gauges. The two screws above the steering column have been taken off and I can take the middle tab off, but i can't seem to the rest off.
If anyone has done this please give me some pointers. Should I just stick a flat-head screwdriver in and force it out? I'm afraid of breaking or cracking the trim.

 

grab hold where the screws were (its the most flexable to get fingers in) and pull. thats teh best advise. there is no real trick. just brute force to pull

 

so i dont have to worry about breaking anything? thanks for the reply fsttyms1

 

no, there are abunch of little spots that the dash clips in, thats all thats holding it back. once you get it started it comes out fairly easy

dont know if you have this DIY but here it is

yea that's the diy i have. from other threads i've searched and read, it didn't seem like too many ppl are having a problem with removing dash. must mean i'm either really weak or my dash is in tighter than others lol. but yea thanks a lot for your help
