Ok here are the instructions:
-Remove the tweeter grills, just pull them, grasp with both hands
-remove trim on gear shifter, the circle rim, just pops off
-dash lower cover (plastic)under driver side, those screws are obvious there are 4 screws and its held with one clip on the right side, once you have the 4 screws off just pull
-next take off knew bolster (metal) under the dash lower cover
-on the side of the dash you will see 2 little square panels (access panels)with a small grove in them, use a small screw diver and pry it off, there is one screw and one bolt (dashboard mounting bolts) in each one, there are 2 little square panels like this on each side of the dash. You can see them when you have the doors open.
-next remove the center console trim (this is the lower plastic part on the sides of the shifter), there are 4 screws on each side, once you have this off you will see 2 more (one on each side) dashboard mounting bolts, take them off.
-next go to the driver side and remove the glove box, 3 screws on the outside and 2 screws on the inside, when you open the glove box.
-remove the center panel (this is where the stereo is) 4 screws and pull straight forward, then unplug all the harnesses.
-next remove the center vents (right above the stereo) you will see 2 obvious screws, there is a 3rd one in the back, kind of tight to get to but possible, I took it off. Unplug the harness here again.
-now take off the visor trim panel, this is the long plastic right above the speedometer, there are 8 screws, these gave me a hard time because you need a small stubby screw driver.
-next to the speedometer there is a little (2 inch) visor molding with a screw right above, take that off also at the far right (near the passenger) of the speedometer display there is another screw take that off. The molding alone the bottom of the display visor is stuck on with double sided tape, you can just pull off but be careful..this is the long rubber strip along the bottom of the whole speedometer display. All of this is to take off the whole display visor the whole speedometer, I am not 100% sure you need to take this off to get the dash off but I did.
-that should do it, the dash should come off, its kind of hard to pull but it will, just make sure you have disconnected all the harnesses you need to, there are some under the driver side and some under the passenger side.) I know this sounds complicated but just do as I did for the most part, look see what screws you can find take them off and them lightly pull and you will be able to see if there are more still in place some where the main bolt are the dashboard mounting bolts 2 on each side under the little covers and 2 near the gear shift, about where you knees are at, after you have take out the center console. If you want to wait till Monday for sure I can send you the scans of the pages, so just let me know.
I hope this helps!
