dash removal

I have a 69 442 and I am trying to remove the dash. Does anyone know any tricks or ways to make it easier to get the nuts off of the dash where the air vent is? I can't seem to fit my hand and wrench to the area where the stud and nut are. Any tips to remove the dash would be appreciated.
Thanks

There's no easy way to do it. There's also a stud between the speedo and the clock that doesn't have a nut. It's push-in, friction fit You have to pop that with a hammer and a long extension. Sometimes I've also found a ground cable that gets installed after the dash goes in that hangs up on the dash metal & has to be removed. Not sure if that's from the factory that way (I don't think so) but sometimes wires get installed and/or changed later
