Re: Knobs????
There's a really small flathead screw holding the wiper knob on. Loosen the screw and it will come right off.
This may not be the proper way, but I've always just pulled the headlight switch knob out....

Re: Knobs????
Headlight knob.....
lay on the floor under the steering wheel, reach up and find the light switch. On the top (usually) and near the center is a small button. You will have to turn the lights on (pull the switch all the way outward)...then push the button and pull the knob some more and it will come right out. Depending on how long you need it removed, you might want to unhook the battery, since your lights are now on. To re-install, simply push it back into place. No need to reach under again.
