    Dashboard Fascia Removal

    I am hung up on removing the last piece of the dashboard fascia backing plate. The first 2 sections on the passenger side practically fell off. The driver's side was a little tougher as the plastic(?) retainer clips on the 47 yr. old hazard flasher were so brittle they snapped - no big deal. The middle section (c/w heater slide control levers) in the photo is the piece in question.

    It almost seems as though there is a fastener or something holding this piece on. I have done the obligatory search & found there is precious little in the archives on the "how to" on this subject so...
    What am I missing doing to remove this without buggering things up?

    Any thoughts or advice on my problem will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Cheers

    This is a copy of my post on PP - there doesn't seem to be the same level of interest in the early cars there so I am hoping for better luck here.

    Have you removed the heater controls and radio? They need to be removed first. It is just held on by double stick tape, a thin putty knife slid up underneath with do it. Don't pull on it, it will bend easily and is very difficult to get straight again.

    Mark..
