I've had mine out a few times. Pull screws on front, pull air lines on heater controll, the big thing is to drop the steering wheel, 2 bolts on dash frame. the wireing I dont remember could be s connrctor or two or pull dash bulbs, A good time to change them any how and there is a post abour going LED. of course disconnect Batt. . the whole mess will come right out, take to bench and do all work from back

Absoulutely Don't Forgt To Put New Bulbs While You In There!

There was a member in another thread similar to this or maybe the LED lights that said he had a few bezels, If you put an ad in the right place, Mopar parts or interior parts, He may see it and you could get one quicker, only a suggestion but it is a faster way to locate parts,, Good luck.

thanks ron i can seem to locate the post any help would be great thanks again pat

Ill see if i saved the link or do a search to help.. I think it had something to do with LED dash lights and it wasn't on the one that i did on mine, It was someone else doing the lights or changing out the dash cluster.

ron u used colord lights n take out the blue light covers?? urs look awesome i ordered leds and the white faces i think it will look nice but id like to do red also can u get me info where u got them? or did u not remove the blue light coves? thanks again pat

First of all, I cant find that link, sorry!
Yes i did take the blue filters off when i did mine, You can always dim the dash lights with the switch but didn't want to chance them not being as bright as i wanted and tear it apart again. Link below is where i got the white faces and the LED lights.. Good luck and hope this helped, switching them from one color to another shouldn't be that hard, reaching up in there to do it.. Im 6-5 and can so i figure anyone else could probably do it easier

did u use 150 spedo or the factory 120 spedo w 150 face all still work right?

 

[Ron 73]

It has the rally dash, 150 spedo, what you seen in my pictures is exactly what it is, only difference is white now and before black, if yours is 120 speedo, they have same for them in white no problem..

 

[74roadrunner440]

another reason im pulling the dash is to swap out the 120 was 150 factory option in 73-74 i thought it was only 120 72 prior were the 150? or am i wrong on that?

as far I have noticed ( can't tell by facts just by what I have noticed ) 73 was a crossyear for the 150/120 speedos. Maybe just HP ( 340s, 400 4bbl and 440s ) cars got 150 speedos for a while 318 with Rallye cluster got 120, dunno. But is true that I have seen 73s with both. Then 74s just with 120s
