removing heater fan knobs 1970

[kevin chamier]

wanted to ask about removing the small heater and fan knobs. got unit out. going to clean plastic cover and replace the black paper behind it. i did not want to crack cover.the black plastic pins on the inside are very brittle. thought i could take them out and slide control arms through front. is that the way to do it? thanks

Pliers with a towel, gently rock back & forth while pulling and the control knobs will come off. The fan switch unscrews from the back of the unit.

thanks orange71, i always like to ask the guys who have done it .before i break things. i have the entire unit out and apart. trying to avoid breaking the original lense.
