Dash removal 2001 Elite Bowrider

[KerrLakeLover 0]

Bought this 2001 Elite in late 2001.  It's been a great boat.  Last couple summers the tach and speedos have been acting up.  I want to remove them and send to Faria for repair.  I'm a pretty technical/mechanical old guy.  Have any of you removed the entire dash module on this vintage boat? As with most gauges you have to get to the clamp behind the gauge.  And it's not accessible unless you remove the dash module.  Looks like I may have to remove the steering wheel assemble and the shift/throttle unit from the gunnel.  Any hints would be greatly appreciated.  (Ironically, I purchased this boat from the owner of a company in Angola Indiana who molded the dash, made the wiring harnesses and put the gauges in place.  Then he shipped the entire module to the Fineline plant in Merced.)
