2003 Cavalier dash removal help
Thursday, January 17, 2008 12:46 PM
Hey folks,

I need access to the rear of my car deck so I need to get at it. I am assuming that I need to remove the entire dash? then the trim plate?
Anyone have any suggestions on how to tackle this job? I thought I read that there are 2 screws to remove behind the fuse plate on the driver's side, and 2 screws on the side of the dash on the passenger side, and 2 - 3 screws in the glove box... would this be correct? are there anymore? once removed should the trim pop off easy?

Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

Thanks!

theres the 2 or 3 in the glove box along the edge of the dash top....but theres also 2 hidden up above the glove box that are mounted into the airbag cover plate. you wont see them at first but if you look up into the glove box from the floor, you'll see the hole and where they are

Oh yeah hope that your Odometer light doesn't stop working after reinstalling the dash like what happened to me...
