I noticed most ppl don't paint the piece that wraps the power window/lock piece. Is there a reason for this? Is it hard to take out or something?

Can someone hook me up with a how-to that includes pictures to remove dash please.

its easy... they probably just like the contrast. theres 1 screw holding the peice and then 3 long peices on the bottom that holds the whole thing together. unscrew that and it should separate

its 2 screws holding the piece on the dash...and 3 long pieces at the bottom to take off the "chip" part, then 4 more to take off the switches from the plastic piece....

i thought it was just 1 holding it to the dash. and i thought the 3 long peices held the chip and stuff together. i dunno... been a long time since i took that apart

theres only one screw i think after u pull the bottom half of the console off... then u unplug the switch thing.. and its easy to take apart once u open the box

tip: becareful when u open the box and then the chip board and then the rubber thing because there are lots (i think like 7-8) little plug/pins that kan fall off and be llost..

I was told the clock is attached to the console. Is there a way to remove it from the console? Cuz I sold my stock CF dash to my friend with a 2003, and his clock is orange. I would like to use my green clock with his stock 2003 dash.
