Default Dash removal mk2 body for wiring loom change

Hello everyone, I'm new on the forum and have currently got a project on the go with my saxo vtr. Which is have a conversion to a Vts running 173 bhp, which should be fun to drive I hope ! I need any information on removing the dash the easy way, I.e. where the little fixings are that just seem to hide, intern that just wind you up and make it impossible to get the dash out. If you under stand where I'm coming from.

Reason for doing this is to run the new loom behind the dash, a shell for the new lump? Any imformation will greatly appreciated

Yes because by trade I'm a marine engineer which doesnt cover dash removals and I don't want to struggle getting it out.
The 4 to 5 days I've allowed to do whole thing. Which is 306 front brakes and drilled discs, full suspension set up, poly bush the whole car and alot more so it's gonna be a job to get everything in the car in 5 days

So don't seem surprised that some people like to ask before jumping in head first!

The loom is connected to the dash via twist locks, also there is a screw behind the upper dash vent which you can get to on e the centre panel is off. Don't undo the 10mm bolt in the scuttle as it holds the heat box in and does not need undoing.
