1965 Dart dash question

Last night I was going take out the dash cluster in my 65 Valiant (Canadian built car, has the 65 Dart cluster from the factory). I didn't think I was going to need to ask for help to do this..
Trouble is, when everything was loose and the cluster ready to come out I bumped into a problem with the light- and wiper switches. How do I take off the knobs? The rings that secure the swithches to the bezel is of course unscrewed but the knobs are to large to go through the holes in the cluster. I would think they were screwed on and tried to turn them around, but I'm postive I'll twist the switches in two before the knobs come off..
Any help appreciated! (the picture is not of my dash, just used to illustrate)
