John, do you have the instrument cluster out? Impossible to get at without removing it. Then from under the dash there are 2 10mm screws, (quite long) one on each side of the column. Remove those two screws and drop the column about 2 inches and with the speedo section out, you can see it and get a dremel tool into it to grind it out. It is not a nice finish "BB" type, just a wart sitting in a hole. It takes about 5 minutes to grind the darn thing out with the dremel.
