James,
Unfortunately, that is the one dash knob that's almost impossible to get off
without breaking it if it's been on there a long time. It doesn't have the
little "release indent" so you just take a putty knife and try to pry it
off. Then it will probably break, like mine did and like someone warned me
it would...and you replace it with a new one.

Subject: [TR] Dash light dimmer knob
As mentioned on the list earlier, I've ordered a new dash from Prestige
Autowood. I started removing the instruments, and got to the light
rheostate knob. I cannot see how to remove this one. Can someone out there
tell me?
On another note, someone a while back mentioned buying a new wiring harness
for their TR-6. This was not an original one, but one with a larger number
of fuses (how in the name of God did Leyland imagine THREE fuses were
enough!) and some other accoutrements. Whoever did this, can they tell me
how difficult the job was, and where they acquired the harness?
Thanks
James Ruffner
