Oil Pressure Gauge 200

My newly aquired '82 242 GLT has an oil pressure gauge that pegs at full deflection whenever the ignition is on. From another post here I've learned that

"The oil pressure gauge will peg at the top if it does not get a ground signal from the sender. ie no resistance = top of gauge, direct ground on "G" terminal = a 0 bar reading"

I've been trying to figure out how to get at the back of the gauge and the Haynes manual is NO HELP (still trying to find a Bentley without waiting for mailorder ... I should have ordered it a week ago. It would be here by now!)

Before I break something, can someone give me a hint as to how to get to the back of the gauges?

Mark.
