You can easily build yourself the two hook tools that are required to pull out the instrument dashboard. Or sometimes with a little hand work the dashboard is loose enough to just pull it out without using the hooks. Before fully pulling out the instrument panel, you have to reach in behind it in order to disconnect the speedometer cable. I usually find it easier to just pull it out enough from the right side to be able to get my hand in there. Then you have to feel for the cable nut and turn it counterclockwise to loosen it, and the pull the cable apart from the speedometer towards the front of the car.
