Default C6 Dash Removal

Does anyone have any links they can share with me on DIY Dash Removal. I'm going to attempt to fix the AC Actuators. After reading dozens of threads here on the subject, think I got this!!!

This is changing a dash in a Z06 but I think it gives you all you need.

do you have to remove the dash in a C6 to get to the actuators ??
I did them on my C5 and was able to replace them all without a dash removal

Here you go, the guides on this site are great. Used this when I partially removed the dash to fix my remove and repair my HUD. It's takes a little time but is not that bad. Keep track of all the screws, bolts, and fasteners and where they all go.

There is an actuator you can access without removing the dash but if your problem is one or more of the mode door curtains then the dash does have to come out.
