Just turned the belt light off in my early 1995 Bighorn.No doubt Isuzu like most other manufacturers like to change things slightly between models & years.My dash is alittle different to the dash shown-no speedo drive but mainly the KSW screw holes are right beside each other.Getting in was easy till after I removed the 2 screws ,one each side of the instrument panel then no go, it wouldn't come out.After pulling all the covers off round the steering column, lying upsidedown on the seat, with atorch & mirror found a screw holding the panel in from underneath.Problem was its headwas all but covered by the casing over the universal on the steering shaft. Lucky for me the scrw was loose as there was no way any screw driver would have got near it. So while wiggling the panel with one hand I loosened the screw to removal by wiping my finger against head of screw with other hand,it was then put in spare parts not back in the base. The panel was then able to be rolled over on to top of dash & screw change over completed. What ahassle as in the process the offending screw fell out of the panel & into the casing around the steering universal & out of sight. I was worried that if left the screw might by some fluke get caught in the universal & lock steering just at the wrong time! But a piece of wire with a hook on end was able to finally flick screw out .Seemed to take longer than the actual changing of the belt.Thought I would send in this item as it could save others alot of hassle.
