I am trying to remove the dash board in my corsa b at the moment and its starting to really piss me off cos i cant be bothered to really look for all the screws that holds it on so basically is there alot of wired behind it so i can just get the angle grinder to it?



or sum1 just tell me how to take the dash out!!

Cheers

what you do is, buy a haynes manual and it'll tell you everything in there! don't chop it! i doubt its that hard to remove...just time consuming but best to take your time and do it properly.

the whole harness for the rear lights etc go across the dash but it is just cliped on
the dash is held with 2 bolts at either end a couple of screws behind the heater controls
you will need to remove the steering wheel
other bolts that hold the dash in are under the scuttle panel and run the lengh under the windscreen it should just fall out then!
