[DML] Re: How easy is it to replace the dashboard

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Depends on how handy you are. You have to take most all of it apart 
first, i.e. console, binnacle, kneepads, glovebox etc. 2 really hard 
parts - getting at the retaining nut that's above and behind the 
radio, and getting the pad off without removing the a-pillar covers 
that are glued under the windshield glass, although I've heard that 
it can be done with some force. I just did this but on the car I was 
working on the a-pillar covers were already off. Plan on a long 
weekend.
