They are held on by nuts across the dash. They seem to be a little bit of a pain but I have never removed mine.

It's a good idea to start this job on a nice day when you can swing both doors wide open and you have time to get up close and personal with your old truck. Don't rush! have some zip-ties, electrical tape, get a little bottle of Fluorescent Speedo & Gauge Needle Restoration Paint - HiPo Parts Garage and have some fun. get out the shop vacuum also. You have no idea how good you will feel knowing that the beast under your dash is tied up! Small things like repainting the needles will make your dash pop!
Good luck.
Good luck.

Most have 8 fasteners,all of the 78/79s i have removed did. But when i removed the 73 one to replace with a 79 one,it had 10 fasteners. Had me fooled and i was ready to just rip it off ,but i found all of them. A couple were real hard to get to. I guess they decided the extras were not needed,which they were not.
