Removing Dashboard Options

[jbspeed]

I am trying to remove the entire dashboard from my 95 GT convertible. I've taken out all the screws/bolts I can find, and it seems like it's about to come off, but just won't come. I've searched everywhere and there are no instructions. Has anyone done this? Any ideas?

oh lord...

the dashboard is held by 4 black screws

1. bottom left
2. botom right
3. upper right remove small vent cover
4. Upper left, remove big vent

then 2 nuts.

1 is underneath the airbag
2 is undernead the bezel of ignition

then 2 bolts that have the airbag!

you have to remove nearly all the plastics, to get to some of the bolts

to get the dash out, you need to lower the steering wheel

its held by

1. 4 nuts
2. 2 bolts.

next when you have done all this!

disconnect the wiring on the left where the door comes in and the right and those in the middle that go to the main engine harness those cups that hold the wiring on the sides are tricky to take out..

see pics







, take pics, its a tricky process.

cuz this is nightmare



the plastics for the vents have to be removed.

reconecting all is a PITA to remmeber.

i may have forgotten some key points, but its the basic

it took me 3 hours to remove, and voila



the key is to disconect, the wires, its not easy

then paint this, it looks nasty
