Default Damn it...

Well, my buddy pointed out yesterday that my dash has cracked. Right above the pass. side air bag. Just wondering if the whole dash will have to be replaced or is that top piece sold seperate? And where can I get it?

Is it the upper dash pad under the windshield? If so it's easy to replace, just pops off. If it's the dash itself (from that upper seem down), the whole thing has to come out.

Yep, it'll be a simple fix then. Find one on ebay or something, then just take a plastic panel puller or screw driver and pop the old one off. It's just clipped and velcroed on.

Absolutly correct.. however I'd suggest using your figures but thats just me.. start at one side and move to the other slowly. also you will need to remove your A pillars to get it out.

Wear some gloves if you use your fingers. I sliced mine up pretty nicely trying to pull up the back edge, on mine that edge was like a rasor blade.
