Type 3 Dash - how do you remove the chrome trim?


Having the dash reskinned on the Fasty and need to remove it of course. How's the chrome trim removed without damaging it?

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.
