I'm just interested in as many pictures and details as I can get before I start this painful experience. Also, how many wiring harnesses do I have to unplug? Do i have to touch the passenger airbag at all?

I'm not looking foward to doing this...

Thanks though!!!


I didn't disconnect the wiring harnesses. I didn't fully remove my dash. It would have been a LOT easier to replace the core had I done that, but I had a lot of apprehention about messing with airbag wires, so I toughed my way miserably through removing the old core and installing the new one without removing the dash entirerly.

I don't have more pictures of the project, but if you print the first post in this thread and take a leap of faith into this project you should be able to get through it. Most of the first post made little or no sense, but as I hit problems they were addressed in order in my print out.

I pity you for having this project looming in front of you.

Although I don't have much automotive knowledge to offer in return for all the help I get from these forums, I am a master electrician, so if anyone needs electrical advice I would consider it my rent here to share. Just PM me.
