Using a dash removal tool I made, thanks to this forum, I was able to pull out the instrument panel but only partially, about 4 inches out. I’m aware that there are all sorts of connections behind it including the speedometer cable and so on and I’m afraid that I may break something if I force-pull it. I took off the knee-dash to look under the steering column but to no avail. I need some slack and what’s holding it back?

Your help is appreciated.
