Need help taking out the dash.

[Hypertek99]

I know I know do a search. I did already and didn't find anything. I'm doing a digital swap right now but can't seem to get the dash out. It's the face piece in front of the gauge cluster that i can't get out. Has anyone done a whole swap on this??? I got the HUD dash so that's why i'm taking out the dash.

dash removal is pretty straightforward. just a few bolts, screws, and blammo, gauge access.

you don't need to remove the dash sir.

Take off your steering wheel cover
Bolt down the steering column (the nuts are red)
unbolt your stock cluster out.

Getting the digicluster's wiring in there is a slight challenge if you've got burly hands.

Thanks for the site. Really made it easier to drop the steering column. I got the digital cluster in, but i have a few more questions. When i'm at a stop the speedo reads 7mph. Do i need to get it recalibrated??? also my seatbelts don't do back when i open and close the door now unless the key is in the ignition.

I'm assuming that you're putting in JDM cluster. If you need to adjust in order to read MPH instead of KPH you can go here. Also I think you can recalibrate the speedo yourself if you read the instruction below.

Ummm, I thought that's how the seatbelts are SUPPOSED to function. They go forward when you open the door regardless of whether the key is on but only go back when the key is on.
