naw just that damn passenger side dash is a bitch to get off w/ the vent in the way, if u look in 2nd pick u can see that the bottom right part of the vent is broke, thats what happens when one bolt is a bitch to get to. other than that, the laying down of it is pretty simple..i have so much tweed left over i dnt know what to do w/ it

im so glad this thread was here...i started to pull all of my dash out so i can paint it and get the dash pad re-covered and didnt know what the hold up was...ill get that bolt out tonight and continue on my way. lol.

how do you get the vents out of the dash board? i just cant seem to get out the vent bezel to get to the bolts behind it for the dash board. im afraid to break them but they have to come out. i dont know if there is a special tool to decompress the clips some how or what....these have to come out one way or another weather it be in pieces or as a whole...i would prefer it to come out as a whole though. lol.

push in on the four metal tabs.

like just push in the two at the bottom with my thumbs and slide toward me, then do the same at the top? or do all have to be compressed at the same time.
