Default Removing Speedometer

1993 Civic DX

Speedo bounces all over, settles once in a while but at the wrong speed, sometimes accurate but mostly not.
I tried swapping out the speed sensor....no change.
I'm picking up a speedo head ( guage ) from a salvage yard tomorrow.

How do I get at the speedo to remove?
Thanks for any tips

Fixed!
Picked up speedo from wsalvage for $40...installed...nice and smooth. Reads ~ 5kph high @ 100kph ( actually doing 95 ). ( any way to fix? )

Also...new odo reads 50thousand more than my old one....can it be wound back a bit?
