David that's just for the inserts

I am looking at replacing the whole of the dash panel replacing the black one for a green one

Hi
Disconnect the battery

The only bolts holding the dash on are behind the airbag on the passenger side and from memory they are security torques ( the key requires a hole in the centre)
Gently prise the bottom of the airbag towards the front seats in a lever type motion and the cover is on straps, remove the screws 7 or 8 I think and the front hinges away from the back
If you gently prise from the bottom of each panel using a plastic spatula type tool so as not to damage the trim you will find it comes out pretty easily.
The hardest part is removing the heater control wheel in the centre of the dash

A good tip is to drop the steering wheel to its lowest setting before commencing

Regards
Steve
