Gauge Cluster and Dash Pad Removal Help

I kinda figured, but the avatar pic isn't always what someone is working on.

Like I said, remove the screws for the gauge cluster and carefully lean it out so you can unplug everything. If it has an ammeter there will be a hot wire there, so disconnect your battery first.

To get the dash pad off, you will need the cluster out, then remove the glove box liner, and you may have to pull the heater controls. There will be speed nuts (or whatever they are called) every so many inches (about 6-8 inches apart) all the way across the top, there is also one screw on each end where the pad drops down over the end of the dash.

To get to some of the nuts, you will more than likely need to move sections of the wiring harness out of the way, it's held in by two metal tabs just bent over on each other.

Be forewarned when moving your hand around inside the dash, there are some vicious sharp areas that can cut you, so take your time.
