Dash Removeal

Ok so how do I get the dash out? I need to repaint it. I have the center Radio bezel out...glovebox off..now what do I do?

buy a helms manual.

sorry for being a dick, but it would be an enormous post to locate for you all the various bolts and connections you have to remove to take it all out.

here is one tip......when you get everything unbolted....you will realize that the steering wheel is in the way of the removal of the dash, DONT take off the wheel, and the turn signal, and wiper arms, DO locate the bracket holding the coloumn up, then unbolt the 2 bolts holding it on, then when you move your seat back your coloumn will drop all the way to the floor and out of your way, i just figured i would point that out, considering most people go thru all of the trouble of removing the whole steering wheel and the wiper, and headlight arms as well, it is a huge bitch to do so

haha welcome to hours of annoyance, ive taken my dash out 3 times and everytime something new goes wrong...if you want instructions i can try and sum things up for u...this is what it looks like...

jesus!

Have you ever put it back together and had "extra" parts laying around afterwards? I hate when that happens.

heres mine outta the car, and wrapped in black vinyl as well. it came out good, and it very smooth. hardest part was taking the dash apart. that glue is tough!!!

another shot. yeah theres a few wrinkles, but i can live with it

middle piece

i know the vents have dust all in them, and i havent finished wrapping the fuse panel cover or the change tray, or the gauge cover either, but ill get to it soon.....

hey incucivic, it looks sweet, and Audi, thanks for the tip on lowering the steering column, that will help people for sure! and i'm gonna do this to take mine out!
