I tore off the dash pad as it was completely dry rotted. There is a metal base that attaches to the dash with what appears to be bolts which are affixed from the inside. I noticed slots every inch or so at the front of the lip. Also, on each side was a protrusion from the side which might attach to the inside of the dash also. Can anyone who has removed this piece give a step by step before I have to use trial and error?
There are 9 studs and the 2 end screws. Once everything is removed, the dash pad will lift out without much effort. If you feel resistance, it probably means you missed a screw or nut. Keep a good count on what you remove and it will be easy. As stated, take your time, it's not that hard. Fig A shows a cut away veiw of the 2 side screw locations. The 9 studs are at various spots along the length of the pad. The worst to get at from my memory is the one by the factory radio speaker.
