Default Removing Dash

What all do i need to remove as far as wires and sruff to get my dash out. I have my steering column lowered all the bolts and screws that i can find but there is that big wiring harness that runs along the bottom of the dash, does that just unclip and hang down below the dash or does that come out with it. And do i have to pull my guage cluster out to or can i unplug it or what. its loose and everything i just cant get it out. Any help would be great..Thanx Ben

I dont know why you are pulling your dash, but make sure you have someone to help you, especially to put it back it...its a MAJOR PITA, trust me I did it last year....it was awhile ago, and I just kinda worked my way through it so I really dont have any tips for ya, just have someone help you!

The car is wrecked so i am puttin a new front clip on it, so that is why im pulling my dash out a long with the rest of my interior. I just dont want to tear or rip out any wires that i cant see or dont know about.

what do you do with the big harness of wires that go along the bottom passenger side of the dash and then run to the back of the car. Does that come out with the dash and if it does where do you unplug it at, and it looks like a PITA to pull out of the dash because it goes way up to the guage cluster and everything. I have the dash just about out but i dont know what to do with this harness.
