93 F250 XLT Light switch access

I can't seem to get to my light switch in my XLT. I have the dash bezel loose but, the light switch **** is keeping me from accessing the switch screws...... So what do I do?

Any clues.... any one? Thanks.

You have to pull the **** off. It has a small tab that you have to use a little screwdriver or pick tool to depress and pull it off. You'll want the switch in the ON position to remove the **** from the shaft. When you put it back on make sure you don't push the **** on too far or the parking lights won't trun off.

You must be friends with the guy I bought this truck from..... he completely broke ALL of the screw backings for the dash bezel that fits around the instrument cluster. This was while trying to fix the light switch, and it was only a blown fuse the whole time......

It's not that I'm against percussive engineering but, I have to go and buy a new bezel cause this one flops around while I trying to drive...... He broke up the dash to try and fix something that wasn't even broken.....

And I don't care what you say, that Ain't funny right there.... No it ain't!!!
ok, maybe just a little, but he's still a moron.
