I'm currently in the process of tweeding my whole interior. Only thing is, I can't get the dash out to get it finished. I removed all the bolts and had the dash ready to come out. I couldn't get it past the steering column(even with it lowered). It kept on hitting the wiper/blinker levers. Has anyone taken the dash out, and if so could you help me with getting it out?

Take out the emergency? Not sure what your talking about. Also, what plug do I need to disconnect? I'm planning on getting the dash out shortly, but want to make sure I know exactly how to get it out first. Thanks for all the help.
.the blinker/washer is easy to take out. look on the back of it, behind the steering wheel. there are 2 screws, phillips head. take those out and then just pull it to the left/right, away from the steering wheel. it'll give a little resistance but should pop out, it kinda snaps in.
.First of you need to remover the steering wheel then the levers, Ive taking dash out plenty of times
.when i did it one of the screws on the steering wheel was stripped, so i couldnt take the steering wheel off. i managed to do it by removing the supports for the steering rack, and lowering the whole thing down (steering wheel and rack). it wasnt as hard as it sounds, just 2 brackets.
.I've taken the dash out of my 95 sedan several times I found the easiest way was to undo the tilt wheel lever and take the bolt out and using a pair of needle nose pliers disconnect the spring holding the column up thus lowering the entire steering column down far enough to pull the dash out
.i love it when we have educated newbies... only 3 posts.. and not asking what VeTeck means... bravo! i know we were all there at some time or another but some of these newcomers ask some dumb questions.
.Wdwalker Ithink I'll take that as a compliment don't know long night jsut got off work but anyway thanks andI may be a noob to the forum but deffinantly not a noob to cars and such been doing that sort since I was young althoguh I have only been a honda fan for a couple years I love my ugly lil 4 door and noone is gonna take her away from me LOL.
