Default What am I missing

I am attempting to get my gauge bezel off. The only par left is the starter switch, the sensor and the dimmer switch. I just cannot figure which was to push, pull, twist to get these off.

What am I missing?

This is way off topic, but, is your name Grady? If so, my name is Grady, too. Only met two other Gradys in my life.

I'm getting ready to install a new starter switch. Let me know if it's not as simple as it appears to be in the above instructions.

Well I got the dimmer switch off but did it from outside the car. There are two release points. What I did was fold the bezel down over the steering wheel. Then standing outside the drivers side, I used two small screwdrivers to lift the release point up and it popped off.

I still cannot figure how to get the sensor off and then the starter switch
