| removing dash
I am trying to remove the silver pieces so I can paint them. I have removed the parts around the gear shift. The piece with the air controls and the one to the left of the steering wheel seem to be attached under the dash pad. How do I remove these two pieces? I don't want to remove the whole dash unless I have to. |

if youre talking about the center console, radio, a/c, ashtray, i.e. area, then you need to pull the center console from the bottom silver part. it seems hard to pull, but a careful good yank will do the job. i believe there is a section in the DIY. if not, someone should have pics.

I'm talking about the piece to the left of the steering wheel and the piece with the a/c controls in an '08. | |

You're right. It's that easy. I had a little more to do because I had to disconnect the HVAC system and power mirror controls, but it still easy. Thanks for your help. Ron  | |
