I have had a look at this in my '65 and there are little springy lugs that push into holes on the dash, so to remove it you gently pull it way from the dash. Start at one end on a small section and you should see what i mean.

use a pair of long nose pliers to squeeze the clips on the inside
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
