The headlight knob... disconnect the battery, pull the headlight switch to the parking light position, reach up under the dash and feel for a button on there, depress that button and pull on the knob, the knob and shaft will come off.
Remove the 2 chrome trim rings from the headlight and wiper switches... they thread off, needle nose pliers will fit in the holes, the kind with a bent nose is ideal for this.
speedo cable threads off
harness plug
oil line if aplicable
retaining screws
tilt the top towards you
then pull up and out

WOW! Do you know how many times I've tried to remove my headlight switch?.....Rather UNsuccessfully, I might add. I never knew that I needed to pull the knob out to the parking light position before pressing the button in that's under the dash.......Hmmmm, learn somethin' new every day I guess.
Well, I've already blown the budget for parts til next year, so won't be replacing the dash bezel anytime soon. Thanks for the "heads up" on correct headlight switch removal.
