remove, seats,shifter,steering, steering stalk,glove compartment, ac, kick panels
remove bolts (2 on both ends, 2 on the tranny tunnel, 1 between the windshield defroster
remove a couple of major wiring harness in the driver side and the ecu.
just about a good 4 to 8 hours job. Might as well put more padding on the firewall while at it to keep the engine noise down.

If your going to remove the dash, that would be the time to install new carpet if you needed it and to wire up gauges to the center speaker/A-pillar, stero install, LED lighting upgrade in instrument cluster/panels, refinish the meter hood, gauge surround, AC panel and shifter panel while you have everything out.
Aftermarket carpet replacement is available from Tfent (?). They are on the forum. There are many posts about redoing interior plastic panels and gauge wiring.

Started the dash removal carnage. You would not believe what you can tell about the previous owners when you start pulling major components out of the car.
