No wonder it wouldn't come out, half the bolts are still in it.

Yeah, I really got frustrated finding bolt after bolt, screw after screw....and still no luck. I just flipped and ripped it out.

I'll definately be more careful with the new one.

Actually, I can remove the rest of my A/C equipment while I'm in there now...I removed all the underhood parts, and I will remove this stuff now that the dash is out.

There was a write up on the forum a while ago on dash removal. It was very well done so I saved it as a word document. If you still need it or want it just e-mail me.

Most of the above descriptions are for the 79 - 83 dashboards. The 84-85 dash is more involved. I believe that is what Thecause is talking about.
