I just reach up from under the dash and push the speedo. It comes out far enough to get an easy grip on, then I can pull it the rest of the way out.

The odometer reset cable isn't that long and doesn't have much slack in it, so you might want to remove the knob from the end and unscrew the nut that holds it onto the bottom of the dash frame. Or you might want to just pull the reset cable out of the back of the speedo.

Removing the panel where the gauges are is an unnecessary step, IMHO. I found that the panel didn't have a lot of room to sit between the dash and the steering wheel, either, and it was easier to maneuver the gauge itself out of there than dealing with the plate.

Either way works, though.
