Duetto dash and fixing sticky gauges

["Andrew Schwartz" <andrew_s_swartz@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Two (inter-related) questions:

1. Is it possible to lift off just the top of a Duetto's dash to get easier 
access to the gauges (for replacing bulbs, etc).  What has to be loostened 
in order to do so?

2. Most of my gauges (oil pressure, temperature in particular) are 'sticky'. 
 That is they get stuck in one position - and then to get the correct 
reading I need to tap the glass.  (Feels a little like one of those WWII 
movies with the pilots tapping the fuel gauges).  There doesn't seem to be 
any easy way to open them up - the chrome ring over the top seems to have 
been crimped on.  Is there another way to loosten them up - or do I just 
learn to live with it?

Thanks,
Andrew
