I just bought some new guages for my 2002 F150, and I can not seem to take off the dash part where it wraps around the headlight ***, dome light, air vent. Once i get that off i'm good to go. Can someone please help? I would greatly appreicate it.

 

There are tabs inside the you need to push. Or you could do the 180 trick to remove the switch assembly. That didn't work so I just used long screwdriver to click-off the 3 tabs. They're located at 10, 14, and 1800 hrs. Good luck.
