Headlight Switch Knob - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi all,

I'm trying to get my dash cluster out, and I'm stuck on the stupid Headlight knob. I read on here that you reach up under the dash, hold the spring loaded button down, the pull out the knob and stem. I've been doing this but the knob wont come out any further than it usually does. I've holding down the button with the knob pulled out halfway and it doesn't let me pull it any farther out. Any tricks I should try? I want to get my shiny new bezel on there!

Try pulling the knob all the way out, then push and hold the button and pull it out the rest of the way.

When you have it in the park light position push the button down, push the knob in slightly then pull out.
