Plastic Panel Removal Eng. Guages?

[Appbrookie]

My Fuel Pressure Guage is inop on my ‘73 140. my A/P is replacing it w/ a refurbished one. He says that I can help by removing the plastic panel piece over it. It is one piece and extends from the left side of the yoke shaft to the right over the horizontal engine guage cluster. My original plastic is still in good shape, any suggestions on removing this with the least amount of damage?
