Hello all. Anyone know how to remove the tachometer gauge portion on my 87' GT 5.0?

I pulled the gauge cluster as a whole and was able to disassemble some of it. I already was able to remove the speedometer gauge and fuel + temp gauge.

I am trying to remove the Tachometer gauge and battery Voltage + Temp gauge (circled in green)
Having a difficult time popping them out. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks!

This is a good video - skip to the 1:10 mark and he takes the tach out. Just have to use a little upward pressure as shown in the video. Good luck!
