speedometer light
«

I just got some LED lights for the speedo and tach. Installed the tach light, no problem. However, the speedometer cover I am having trouble getting off. I removed the speedometer, removed the cable. and removed the screw in the end. The cover will not come off due to the odometer mileage reset knob. I guess it has to be removed to get the cover off to get to the light bulb. Geez, even with my glasses on, I can't see how the odometer reset knob comes off. Am i missing something real easy here???? As always, youalls help is appreciated.

There is a small phillips head screw in the knob. Unscrew it, pull the knob off and the cover comes right off.

+1 on the phillips screw. It is SMALL. I had to use a screwdriver I normally reserve for my glasses.

Thanks Bikerbou and Sgt D. I put on the strongest glasses I had and still coulnd't see the screw, but I used an eyeglass screwdriver and by golly the knob came off. Put in the new bulb and put it all back together. Now, just waiting for night time to see what it looks like. THANKS.
