REMOVAL

1.	Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.

2.	Remove the ash tray and then remove the screws holding the center facia panel.

3.	Remove the center facia panel and disconnect the connectors.

4.	Remove the screws holding the audio and remove the audio assembly from the mounting bracket.

5.	Installation is the reverse of removal.

It will look something like this when its out except your steering wheel is probably on the wrong side.

The USA models, all the switches you have dangling stay with the bezel.. aint seen that before (European), looks kinda funny with the glovebox on left and having to work a M/T shifter left handed.

The switches did stay with the bezel but I was changing the dash to the woodgrain kit when I took those pictures that's why they are just hanging around like that.

It will come apart in two sections. The bottom part (climate control) will come first. Give it a firm tug at the base and it should pop free. Then there are two more screws at the bottom of the upper fascia that will come out. Apply some downward pressure on the top of the fascia while sliding towards you. It should slide right out.
