Default Dash removal

There are a few things I need to repair in the dash, and I think it would be best for me to fix them all at once. This means I need to remove the the dashboard from my 93. I was able to find information on repairing some of it without removing the dash, but so far no information on removing the dash.

Does anyone have a link or information on removing the dashboard?

Take your time, step-by-step, and it will come off. If I remember 93 didnt have a passenger airbag. That may make it a bit easier.

Did not get started as planed. Bad weather and no space in my garage for now.
I have a FSM but I find it worthless. Cant find information, and what I can find just used some J**** tool that I don't have any idea what it is.

Take off the ac vents, then you will have access to the screws that hold the dash pad on. There are also screws behind fuse plate on passenger side and the drivers side mirror defrost vent. Use a credit card to pop out the cover plate on the passenger side ac vent. You don't have to remove the plastic trim on the windows. Pad slides under it. There's an electric connector I'n the center top vent that has to be disconnected. Disconnect the battery and turn the headlights on to drain the electrical system. There's an air bag sensor on the passenger side on my 94 not sure about your year. Better safe than sorry. Hope this helps post again if you need more info.

Finally getting started on this, and have a few more questions.

Where are the vacuum lines for the hvac?

I need to completely rewire the blower motor. Not sure what connector this is, I'm not finding much information on that. The part of the wiring that would be in the engine harness is gone, and needs to be replaced.

Also going to be adding back A/C, and need to wire this in.
Can I wire this in with out needing to connect it to the PCM?
Does anyone have a diagram for this?
