Headlight Switch...

Hey guys.....I need to replace some of the bulbs in my dash cluster but can't figure out how to get the Headlight switch off so I can slide the cluster out.


Any ideas???????

Remove the hush panel (plastic panel above your knees when driving the car). Use a flashlight to see the switch. You'll see a button on the bottom of the headlight switch. Press it while pulling on the ****. Presto, the **** will come out.

What year do you have? On my 88, I didnt have to remove the switch, I just unscrewed the required screws on the cluster and the two locking clips in the bottom of the cluster, then undid the speedo cable.

I'm not that observant

I've heard that 91-92 are different in the dash area, so i'm out of my leauge. If you need, I can take a photo of my switch (back side) so you can see how it's mounted. I'll be taking my dash back out in a day or two.
