#87537, "I'm going to kill these dash bolts. :wallbash"




          

I am removing all of my interior to change the color, and I was in the middle of removing my dash and can't get to the last 2 bolts. emoji I read the write-up, but can't get to those two bolts under the tweets in the dash, what the crap!!! Anyone have an easy way of getting to them? ANYONE AT ALL??? HELP!!! I swear, every time I work on my car, it's a piece of cake until right at the end. So, TIA for any help. emoji

Just use a long screwdriver, if I remember right, its a little ways down there right? Like a 45 angle I think....

I pulled 2 dashboards off cars last year in the snow. I was proud of myself! emoji

did you take the tweets out? they're right there behind them, they kinda go towards the firewall. I fought with finding them too when I pulled my dash, but once I found them I felt really stupid because they were right there.

Pop your tweets and take them out, what's the issue? Are they stuck? Mine came right out emoji

Ok, I feel like an idiot now. emoji I thought the write-up was saying that the bolts were under the dash by the tweets. I didn't know you just popped out the tweets and there they are. Simple as cake, thanks for the help though, it was very easy. I'll post pics of the 'ole car when the interior is done, it's gonna look badass. emoji
