How do you get the **** off the clock? I need to remove the plastic lense so I can remove the ring beneath it to paint it blue on the inside.

Thanks.

This is a repro tach for a '68.

 

The clock **** is held on with an itty bitty screw in the centre of the ****...use a bent needle nose pliers with protective covering so as not to scratch the shaft and hold it firmly while loosening the screw...same deal for safety sentinnel...

 

Ah crap. well, too late now. Dash is in. Thanks tho....
