So, you've removed everything from the dash... if I'm hearing you correctly.
I guess that means the speedo is out.
Lay it face down on a rag, get some slip-joint pliers... grasp the upper edge of the slip-in part of the light & try to pull while gently twisting.

Or, is it that you already have the socket removed from the speedo & can't get the bulb out of the socket?

Just unscrew the threaded collar up under the dash.

yep. that should work for the red emergency flasher light on the dash. If you do it carefully then it should come out like that. It might be stuck a bit, then you might want to use some wd40. Be careful not to put pressure on the bezel and red lense on the dash, as the red lense could crack.
Good luck!
