I just put my dash back on today. There are 9 nuts all together that hold the dash top pad on. 3 of them go through the front of the dash frame and 6 of them come through the frame from the top. If you get up under there and look, you can easily spot them as the bolts that are attached to the dash are white plastic and the nuts should all be plastic also (10mm I think). If you have an extension and swivels they are not too bad to get out...just have to contort yourself under that dash to see them (take the lower pad off to give you more room.
The ONLY real tricky nuts here are 2...I SAID 2...that attach to the dash from under the instrumet pad. It is not obvious that they are there and if you didn't go there you'd be tugging and tugging and ultimate crack your dash pad. So, to get these you must remove the instrument cluster and you'll see them. Us an open end box wrench to then loosen and remove these. Once you have all these off just lift up and out and off it comes. If memory serves me...the 3 that run along the front of the dash frame are to the extreme left and right (between the side of the dash frame and the fresh air vents. The 3rd is about in the middle. Good luck! Jim |
