Top Outlaw tip:

Use masking take to protect the dash surround it is so easy to damage and marks are not at all straightforward to remove if at all.

Also putting the gear stick into 6th will help lots for access - for autos move it as far away from the dash as you can.

Cheers for the link.

I expected things to be screwed in but I'll give the yanking technique a go :ohmy:

I need to get the A-pillar cover off too and the glovebox. Do I just yank 'em off?

A pillar pops off, glove box has to be pushed in together at the top to allow it to flop out then theres 2 plastic pegs that just slide out so you can remove the box in full.

Sorry, a pillar has a plastic screw where your feet are.

You don't need to remove the A pillar for that necessarily, I just tucked it behind the trim. Just be careful if you have curtain airbags to make sure you don't cross over it.
