Re: dash

What do you need to take apart? The dash pad and instrument cluster or what?

Re: dash

Start by removing the instrument cluster bezel.
On the passengers side of the dash, facing the door you will find a screw. Remove it.
Above the glove compartment door, on the bottom side of the dash pad, there are 4 (four) hex headed screws spaced evenly along this edge. Remove them.
Lift slightly on the pad and pull straight back to remove.

Re: dash

If you take the gauge cluster lens off DO NOT use any liquids on the gauges, the lettering WILL come off. Good luck.

Re: dash

*WARNING*removing the dash pad will cause the rest of the vehicle to fall apart and trigger an unplanned frame off resto mod...ask me how I know .
