Gage panel disassembly?

How in the heck do you take the gage panel off a 65 c10 I want to take it off so I can paint the black trim piece. I took off the screws in the front. What else is there that has to be taken off so it will pull right out?

You will have to remove the headlight switch. Push the little spring loaded button on the back. I believe the lights have to be in park but I forgot.Then pull out the shaft. The wiper switch is easier and also the ignition switch. If you have a choke remove it and remove the wire for the cig lighter.

Re: Gage panel disassembly?

dont forget the speedo cable, and if you have an oil gage you have to take the feed line off as well.
hope this helps.
