The dash isnt that hard to take out just time consuming.

First remove your console , then there is about 6 bolts across the top of the dash by the winsheild , then down the sides there is 4 bolts 2 on each side , then across the bottom kinda stand on your head to take these out.

Remove all the panels on the front of the dash , start unplugging wires and then unplug some more , you just have to be careful with everything. The plastic will break pretty easy .

That is a quick rundown of it. Just be easy with it and look for bolts and screws and you will eventually get it out. And dont be surprised if you have a few bolts left when put it back together. lol

By the way why do you have to take the dash out to install carpeting ?

lol thanks i been known to have leftovers when i get finished sometimes ! but a guy that was telling me how to install the carpet said that taking out the dash is the first step............ is there another way or easier way?

Just pull out the center console , seats , and the carpeting will go in and out. No need that I know of to pull the dash to install carpeting.
