The book say to remove the screws to take out the dash. But my car has rivots. Do I drill those out to take out the dash? Or I'm I missing something? Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Jason

There is a tech article on the Pelican Parts web site that has step by step instructions on how to remove the dash. I'm getting ready to remove mine (in next month...) and have been "reading up". I've never heard of anyone having to deal with rivets during removal.

Unless your car is not stock, stay away from the rivets, they do not need to be removed.

RTFAQ? You're not looking in the right place for the screws.

Oh, no, sorry, it's not in the FAQ, it's in the Tech Section. Still...

No rivets in mine. I have had the dash out 3 or 4 times. Its been awhile but here is what I remember.

Remove header pannel with the interior light,
Remove side rails.
Remove passenger side knee bolster.
Remove glove box.
Remove center console.
Remove sterring wheel.
Remove instrument cluster.
Remove center speaker.
remove dashboard.

There is more detail but its too long to post. Let me know wich step you need more help on.
