How to remove front plastic dash. 1998 S10

[dkessler1]

I need to replace some burn out light bulbs in the dash. Beyond the screws in the front plastic one piece dash. Are there just clips holding on the rest of the front dash plate?

You will have to take out the bottom section of your dash first(the piece that is above your feet).Just look for the 7mm screw heads,they are everywhere.Then you will see the other 7mm screws that hold the front of the dash your talking about.Once screws are removed it just pops off.Then you will have to unplug a couple of things.

Right on. I never thought of that lol. Might wanna take that advice. ive broken a couple trim pieces and had to part them out of other trucks because i got frustrated or just simply didnt know how it came out. good advice dude. either way go slow w/ it and if you get frustrated easily like me take a break lol youll be glad you did.
