The Pumpkin is 1970. She has the center defrost vent. I need to change that vent as I broke it. I got the dash pad off. Looking at the inside about how many screws/bolts do I need to find to take out the dash as that is the only way to replace that stinking vent. I am also going to apply new dash material from 914 rubber along with new material for the front of dash where guages and switches are.

Thanks guys and gals

I’m pretty sure you access it from the front trunk. Remove the air box to get at the two bolts or screws that hood it in place. Not a fun job.

I can take a pic of the area in my parts car if it helps.

A Pic would be wonderful. But oh shit don't want to take air box out again! I see the bolts coming thru. Oh boy more fun.

Thanks for info.

Access is from inside of the car but nearly impossible without removing the sash frame. Held in by two flat head screws.
