I have the dash out of the car and have loosened the rheostat at the back of the dash but cant figure out how to get the knob off. Thanks in advance for your help.

There is a small recess. Push a punch into the recess and that will lift the retaining pin, while pushing up on the punch carefully pull the knob off.
