Dashboard 90-93

[nick2004]

Ok I removed everything I could. I took out all teh screws and the black part where the air conditioner controlls are I cant get out! The book says remove all the pannels in the way and then screw then pull out. Well its still connected. The part where the controlls are wont budge much. Also how do you take out the air vents and the venter vent with the clock thanks nick

I had the same problem when I was removing my interior pieces to paint them. Behind the a/c panel there are a few screws you'll have to remove to get the panel out. It's a bit of a pain getting in there...use a stubby screwdriver to remove the screws.

I tried that with little luck. However took off the cables and took the whole peice out its all done it looks really nice. My guages glow red too. If only i had money now to paint it. however i do appriciate the help

Glad you got it out, Toyota sure makes it hard to do. Getting ready to paint my ride soon, sometime within the next 2 months. Then I think I'll be done with my appearance mods for a while.....until I get a wild hair and decide to start making more changes LOL.

the dash is to be removed to remove the a/c control assy. with a screw gun you could have the entire dash on the bench in less than an hour.

easy haven't you forgotten to unhook the two cables of the heating??? there'sone that goes from the control panel on the dash towards your trottle. Somewhere just behind the middle console it is connected to the heaters blower (I'm not english so don't laugh if this is not the right name) the second one goes from the control panel straight trough to the engine compartement. there its hooked on the heat controler. little on the left site.. if you unhook those two cables it should come off easely. just beware for the electric wires they are really short and you might need a child's hand to unplug them....
