other than the clips donavan posted about, its pretty simple and self explanitary. once out,there is a handful of small screws holding it all together.i recently did mine. i cleaned up the speedo and gauges, you could re paint and get decals from hobby store if in poor shape. painted needles florecent orange, painted the panel behind glass, i went gloss black with several coats of clear but you can paint to match body or whatever you want. i sanded and painted the outer peice silver and again laid on lots of clear and a sanded the clear plastic starting with 400 grit and going to 1500 grit and followed by HAND BUFFING with coumpound. dont use an electric buffer, ask me how i know! when i was finished, i came home and that same day found a chrome surround and ordered it. corvair dash parts are the same and plentiful/cheap. so...... look on ebay for parts BEFORE dissassembly and no electric buffer!
