Gauge-mounting question

Ok '94 Ford Ranger, not 4x4. Up top, center of panel, above radio, there is an air vent on the right and a blank fake air vent on the left (where the 4x4 switch would go). I'd like to remove this panel (how...?) and mount a vacuum gauge on the left side.

I can't figure out how this panel comes off, or the air vents around the truck except the driver's window vent. Help please?

Thanks guys.

Is this a 2" guage? I have two chrome under dash guage mounts that I did not use when I put guages in my console. You are welcome to one if you want it.

Sure Dono that'd be really good. How much would you like for one?

No charge, you are welcome to it. I am hoping some of us can get togather at the Pates swap meet at Texas motor speedway on the 29th or 30th. I could bring it then. Let me know if you need it sooner.

Pates swap meet? Wow, I have not heard about that swap meet since I drove a 1962 Impala (back in the early 80's...I'm old but not that old). Is it a pretty big meet? I guess there is stuff out there for old Rangers?

I'll be there if at all possible. Hopefully nothing will be going on that weekend. Thanks Dono!
