thats some serious work there fella....i would say pretty much everything has to be removed!!!
Did you want to paint it or something???

From what i can remember, there's four bolts holding it in at the top(two behind the passengers airbag and two behind the steering rack), two at the bottom on L-shaped brackets and two on the sides! + all of the wiring loom that's attached to it.
It's a pig of a job to get out!

I want to remove the centre air vents to put a pioneer AV/ satnav system, so i'd need to block off the pipe work behind it. I'd prefer to put it in the vents rather rather than the aircon control facia, i think it'll look neater. But if it's going to be to much work i may have to resort to the second option.

it's easy (well i've removed a few now)
hardest part i think is getting the loom off of the dashboard as it's cable tied and held in with rubber band type things
the fuse panel is also held to the dash board so you'll need to undo that aswell, couple of hours should see it out easily

it looks like this when the dash is out, from memory the ducting for the side vents is joined to the centre vents so should just be a matter of re-routing the pipework to come straight out the side vents
the ducting comes out with the dashboard when you remove it

its a serious network of stuff behind the old dash isnt it!!! Nice idea with the pioneer satnav system, i think it will look really good in that position!
the fuse and relay panel to the right is the interesting bit, that's where it gets a bit more technical
i wouldnt want to tackle the job of putting it all back together........its got good potential to get a bit fiddly i reckon.
remember to put all the small screws and bits into a box so that you dont have any mystery bits left over when its done....lol

lol i was thinkin of using velco, i can't be arsed with screws.
i think the one at the front is the bit that you need to play about with, from memory that's what links to the vents and then the one at the back is to do with the windscreen vents at the back of the dashboard
