Quick question about dash removal (1987 FC)

Its still bolted in the center by the vents and under the Warning light cluster, do i have to get up under the dash or something to find them? They're not listed in any diagrams i've found either.

Theres a writeup in the archives with details about how to get to each bolt. I've taken out two dashes based on that writeup and it was perfect.

i went though the writeup, there still seems to be a bolt i'm missing in the upper center area, ether behind the center vent parts, or behind the dash...i'm gonna re-read the writeup, any ideas?

there is a nut under the Small square plastic Piece that is Between the Two vents..on Top of the dash..also If you Look INTO the center vent area,Up against the firewall,where the Logicon Connector(?) is,you will see another 10 mm Nut that holds the dash to the center of the firewall...You most likely already have Found the Ones under the Flat piece on Top of the dash,and the ones on the outer sides of the dash(Dash to door area).there are also a couple on the Sides where the shifter Console and the Rug Meet up(on each side,where the seats meet the Shifter..around there) and then of course you have a couple screws on the floor(where the center console meets the shifter Surround).That should help you out.
