How do you remove the upper dash panel?

[bubblerboy64]

Well, I painted it and you know that was the biggest improvement I've
made to date for the interior. Took some time to tape off but it
really turned out great. You know that vinyl material there is just no
tape that will stick to it. I finally used duck tape and even that
didn't work real well. I find that interesting. Maybe 70's vinyl and
2007 vinyl just don't work together.
