Morning, folks. Today I have two questions for the list. Here goes...

1. According to Haynes, the dash lights just push into their plastic sockets. I untwisted the sockets and removed them from the instrument panel, but I'll be durned if I can get the lamps themselves out of their plastic holders. What's the trick?

2. Anyone know of a good way to clean up screws and fasteners (e.g., bolts, washers, etc.)? As I remove and replace components, I'd like to reuse as much hardware as possible but remove any rust or scale that's formed.

I'll be waiting for your comments.

Thanks.
