"got the clear plate out"
I assume you mean you removed the 4 screws where the black feet were attached and the entire gauge consol is now free because you don't need to remove the clear cover.
I had the same problem you did. Like you mentioned, it seems as if it is stuck. This could be a possibility since the cable is rigid and curves up inside the firewall comparment before leading to the guage consol. If you can some how tilt the consol and reach in to bring the main wire wrap forward a bit. The cable is not long at all so you wouldn't be able to pull it forward very far. To remove any bulbs you will need to tilt the consol forward and swing it to the left...that is about as much play with it as you will get but enough to change bulbs.
If you have trouble getting this back together just PM me, I wrote up a 9 step guide how to do this or you can just search the forum for the word "consol" I guess or "burnt out bulbs"
Later,
Greg
