The question is, how do you get the socket out of the dash housing?

Randy,
Don't the inner and outer sections of the socket unscrew apart?

Correct...the retainer is a shell on the back that unscrews from the body.

As a matter of fact, it does unscrew and come apart. It had siezed up tight and took a little bit of muscle to get it apart. Thanks guys. Now it's time to paint the dash.
