Okay, but how?
I have tried to undo the knob like for the choke's knob but apart from being rock hard and unwilling to move, it has given me a sort of feeling to be on the point of breaking if I had pushed it a bit more
Can one remove just the black plastic knob so that the entire cilinder can move inwards ans free the lower instrument panel, without havinfg to disconnect the wire etc.? In other words, like the choke

CenTXFj60, 4Cruisers and Jaggernaught, all most helpful. thanks!

Jaggernaught,
Are the four nuts in the photo the ines you talk about?
And from which point do I have to disconnect the hand accelerator cable, do you know?

1) what is the procedure for removing the manual accelerator? Should I just turn the knob like a screw, like the chocke?
Or is it the bolt right behind it?
2) How one gets access to those nuts below the hazard switch?
Best,
Hello mates. Could anyone give me a hint on how to remove the lower metal cluster?
Okay, so far I have managed to take out all the nuts on both ends, but I am struggling on how to remove the manual accelerator (right side of the steering wheel) and the two bolts
and are just above the hazard...
Dear members,
Is there any user from Japan kindly willing to help me buy a pair of Japan style fender mount side mirrors like the ones in the attached photos?
