okay guys.. the circles represent where all the screws are on the console.. u have to take out the middle arm rest console out before u can take off the piece in middle console..
the 2 circle above the headunit are the hardest ones to get to i guess..
there are 2 screws facing towards the sky.. they hold the aircond element to the dashboard.. i just took mine out and left mine out.. cause there's alot of clips holding the bugger down anywayz..
then theres one behind the demister button.. remove the actuall switch before taking out screw
then theres 2 above the dashboard console.. also facing towards the sky.. easy to remove..
then last but not least.. theres one behind the Cruise control and sunroof switch(WHICH I DONT HAVE!!!)

okay in this picture the 2 circles represent 2 cables..
cause my car is a EXI.. my tempture cable is stuck on.. which is crappy.. hence why i didnt completely remove my dash..just take out as much as u can and leave it sitting there on the steering wheel like me.
for the climate control versions.. there are 3 cable.. just remove them and bobz ur uncle.. the whole things will just come out with minimum force..

very nice looking dash man! when your bored of it feel free to give it to me! :)

Awesome writeup - thanks! Any idea where to get the guages from, and how much? Americans can get them for like US$15 on ebay (but i prefer km/h)... It'd be nice to get those prices here!
-
Yeah those gauges look so nice. BTW you have fat fingers hahahahah
-
hahahahah
i got mine for 50 bux here..
but its was like 2 years ago when i got it for my black accord..
the shop closed down.. and i bought heaps of krap from them
u can get them anywhere now

looks funky mate :D must have been a misson

Nice write-up Ken. But it would've been beta if u actually mentioned how to rip the console out. ;)

looks like a manual since the dash doesn't show the P,R,N,D4,D3,2,1 in middle. correct me if i'm wrong..
