Default Need to remove the speedometer, help

Was wondering if any-one has directions via link or website to remove the speedometer ( IPC) ? I have a hissing sound that I swear is coming from behind it. Discussion about my hissing sound in this link.

Thanks , Patsfan

Remove the trims, unbolt the steering column so it hangs about and an inch lower than were it is. Remove the IPC holding screws and start pulling it out careully. Steering wheel will be tilted down as well while. You might wish to put a towel over the steering wheel as well. Once out, do not lay it on its back, keep it upright.
