    I got the lower dash and all the screws that i could find after removing the glove box, the radio, the ciggerate lighter and the fuse box, i have a hunch that all you do is lift up and pull out, but im afraid about the light and the winshield wiper nobs. This is also my daily driver so im not just going to go at it like a monkey.

    Any adivce would be helpful

    Dash pad, or entire dash? Either are simple..there is a write up on how to remove your dash pad, if you want to removed the entire thing, you need a really small 1/4" socket, or pull the windshield.

    Your talking about the main (steel) dash? You won't get that out without pulling the windshield, there are 5 screws around the perimeter under the rubber windshield gasket that are about impossible to get to. You'll also have to drop the steering column.
