Thanks, it was easier then I imagined. Tools needed where 10mm and 7mm sockets also a pry tool. Scariest part of replacing was removing the air bag. As for reinforcing the dash I used 1 can of plasti dip.

Oh Yeah almost forgot. When taking out the bolts you can use a drill to make it go faster but when you are installing the new one, hand tighten if not the bolts will snap.

Just swapped my dash. Took a hour and 40 minutes to from start to 98% complete. Just need to do the airbag and the front piece of the dash (ran out of daylight)

Apologies if this has been asked. But once a skin is attached, does it obscure any of the attachment hardware? In other words, if you ever have to remove the dash, do you need to plan on purchasing a new skin (or new dash)?
Just FYI once the dash skin has been attached you are unable to remove the gauge cluster without having to remove the dash skin.

Can I ask where you got the replacement dash and how much it cost?

Or what’s up with the area of the dash where the stereo is supposed to be? Is that a giant cubby?

Also, is it only me or is the layout of this thread all messed up? All the posts are in a narrow sidebar.

It's not just you. The formatting is really ******* up.
