You don't need to pull the dash.

If you mean the shifter knob, here's how you remove it.

The collar at the base of the knob that is attacked to the boot....grab it and turn it counter clockwise. When it stops, slide it down off the shift knob... then grab the knob and pull it straight up until it comes off the ahifter shaft. A little wiggling wouldn't hurt.

If you mean the HVAC knobs, they should pull off. If the knob is frozen (as was a problem on early build 2003 cars), the entire HVAC control unit must be removed and replaced. To get to the HVAC control unit, you need... a flat tip screwdriver or interior trim removal kit (the latter has less of a chance of damaging trim piece). Insert the flat tip into the gap between the radio surround bezel near the upper left corner, and pry. You should head a snap and it'll pop outwards slightly. This is because the bezel just uses metal insert tabs to hold it in place. Continue prying around until it comes off. Unplug the Hazard switch (and traction control button if so equipped) and there ya go. You should now be able to freely get to the HVAC unit. This should also allow you access to the stereo head-unit, should you want to upgrade it. Many people also take this opportunity to paint the radio bezel the same color as the car's body for a unique touch.
