It's not really as bad as you would think, I put off swapping in my black dash for a long time thinking it was going to be too hard. It will take a little time and patience, so just take your time and keep track of everything. So here we go... I started out removing the radio/bezel, console/side panels, gauge bezel/cluster, passenger airbag, glovebox and all the lower dash panels. Pop out your center a/c vent assembly and foglight/power mirror bezel and disconnect those plugs. You may or may not need to remove the steering wheel, I left mine on and tilted it all the way down, but it's aftermarket and a little smaller than the stock one. There's some plugs behind where the radio was, unplug the two on the drivers side and I think one or two near the fuse box, leaving the dash harness in the dash, it would be a real pain to try and pull all that out. You don't have to remove the hvac assembly, just unscrew it from the dash frame and push it back in some out of the way. Remove both dash speakers, there's a bolt behind each one going into the firewall. There's probably about 8 or so under the dash that need removed, just look around where plastic meets metal. All the metal frameing below the radio bolted to the floorpan stays, should just be one bolt on each side holding the plastic dash frame there. I'm sure I'm leaving out some minor details, but this is all off the top of my head lol. Just start wiggling the dash and feel where it seems to be holding and go from there. Hope this helps and good luck :thumbsup
