I am new to the group. Have just gotten another 73 convertible. Will post some pictures when I have back together. My problem is the instrument cluster lights did not work. So thought, after some research, I would change to LED bulbs and while I was at it I would replace the printed circuit and dash voltage regulator. Everything was going great until I got to the disconnect speedo cable part. Every thing I have read says press the tab and remove the cable. Have tried and tried cannot seem to get the tab to move. Is there a video actually showing this being done? Have scars on my hands trying to do it.

Hey, Wayne! Welcome to the forums and howdy from Texas!
Yep, those speedo cables can be difficult. Have you tried pushing the connector in towards the speedo then trying to depress the release before pulling the cable out? That tends to work for mine.
