According t the owners manual there is a switch on the back of the Radio in my '90 740GLE to display either the time of day or the staion frequesncy. How do you get to the switch? Do you have to pull apart the dash?

 

Simply remove the radio from the dash. The method of removal depends on the model of radio, but should be in the handbook.

 

Well the user manual gave no clue as to removing the radio. I couldnt figure out how to get it out after 20 minutes or so of trying so back to square 1.

 

Typical car manual.

If you have a CR814 radio gently prise off the trim panel that goes from around the radio to the steering column to access the radio retaining screws. The trim panel is a 'click' fit so does not require a lot of force.

Dang I must be a dipwad, I could not get the radio out. I removed the cover, the two screws above left and right of the radio,, pulled like heck and no give. Removed the tray the cig lighter is in and tried to reach around and find the switch that way and just succeeded in cutting up my hands. Square 1.
