Default Dash Removal Help

i searched and pm this before asking.

i'm installing my HUD and have the dash almost completely apart. i followed this picture. that GMautotech posted.

but i'm stuck in the passenger side where the glove box goes. the drivers side moves but the center and passenger side is not budgeting. does anyone have some different instuctions or pictures that could be helpful?

again i have searched the threads and i see people talking about instructions on dash removal, if someone has them can you forward them to me?

randrade@tampabay.rr.com

thanks

You might try getting in contact with Gerardo Astorga of Down South Vettes. Gerardo has a lot of experience removing and replacing interior parts on Corvettes. But be careful, his leather upgrades are intoxicating and addictive.

Default dash

The Pass. side is kinda tough. There are about 3 bolts (10mil) up by the bag. You have to remove the glove box (it is held on by 3 hinges which can be kind bent/press off the track. To get to the bolts you pretty much have to lay on your back on the pass. side floor and look up. Hope this helps. If you need anymore give me a call 519-440-2625
