Hello everyone....I have collected a bit of dust behind my clear plastic instrument console on my dash...The dust had initially found its way in there from very small holes near the odemeter reset button...I guess big enogh to get dust in there???...Since the holes are small, how can I clear out the dust...Canned air is what I was thinking?..There seems to be static in there as the dust is sticking to the clear plastic..thanks all...Lance

Lance, I'm afraid the only way to get the dust out will be to remove the instrument panel. Good luck.

I use a Vac N Blo Auto Vacuum (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/mvc-vnb-83ba.html) . . . using the smaller attachments, I can force enough air through the mileage reset button to blow out dust. The Vac N Blo has been fairly successful at sucking out cigarette ashes, too. If the dust and grime is too thick, youâ€â„¢ll have to remove the panel.

You can get a set of neat little attachments to use with your existing vacuum at Home Depot, maybe not as nice as the one linked to above, but they are worth a look. Not sure if all HD's carry them so here is a link:

You just have to make sure they are the correct diameter for your hose or make up an adapter.
