Afternoon all.

Im in the middle of remving my dash..........

So far ive done the following:

1. Removed centre console and switches
2. Removed steering wheel and dials
3. Taken off the shuttle panel
4. Taken out wiper moter
5. Removed the 3 nuts that hold the dash in place by the wiper moter
6. Removed the 2 screws close to where the door hinge is on either door.

Now im stuck. The dash wobbles but doesnt seem to want to come out.

What am i missing?

Any help would be great as i am doing this right now :S

Thanks Guys :y:

Coming out and being replaced with a flocked 1 mate :y:

Also wanted to strip out the last of the sound deadening behind the dash etc. Just debating whether or not to remove the air bag ecu :panic:
