Finally finished gettin the dash out today, not really in too much of a rush so I suppose its why I'm taking my time about doing it all!

Just need to tidy it all up & remove the foam padding, heater, blower, etc...

Definately has made the car lighter, the rear wheels used to be tucked under the arches, but now there is about 2cm clearance! Interior definately does weigh a fair bit!

Oh, and for the record, I didn't do the AK trick of using a hacksaw, removed the dash in one piece instead, and it was a hell of alot easier than I thought it was!
