I am trying to find a tool or suitable workaround for loosening and tightening the round dash bezel nuts that hold the headlight switch (and probably some other switches I don't have) into the dash. A pic is attached, it has 4 little detents at about 5/8" diameter. I've dinged up enough dash bezels trying to do it with a screwdriver, punch, etc.
Here's hoping someone knows of something better.
tool for dash bezel (escutcheon) nuts?

orl2036; I have, on another car when I was younger, the results were not pretty. I will re-assess my abilities, I have a pair in the toolbox.
Thanks!
