Removing Dash
Removing Dash
Well this week, its decently warm for Canada... only like minus 10 compared to minus 40! So I figure I'll install my day time runnings and a new stereo. I know, or THINK I know and have read enough on installation, but removing the dash, any tips? At First glance I wasn't seeing the easiest way any pointers? 1992 JDM should be the same as the 93USDM only opposite

Remove the trim on the A pillars first, or you will likely tear them up on one side.
Voice of experience here.
Taking out the passenger seat will give you more room to work, and make it easier to maneuver the dash.
Taking out both seats is even better.

Mine is a `93 and never had the dash out until late last year. My clips were super stuck and I had a really hard time gripping the dash hard without my hands slipping (or gripping so hard that you start hearing cracking sounds - ugh).
Finally I used some rubber mat stuff you put under rugs so they don't slip. Couple pieces where you grip made it much easier. Maybe some no-slip dishwasher type gloves might work as well.
Take your time and don't get frustrated.
