What won't go back together? I took the dash out for mine. Took a while + you have to label everything, but it makes it easy when you have to reassemble.

It is possible but it is a Ba$tard! Look on the bright side you're not doing it on a couple of December evenings with a maglite in your mouth ;-)

Take the dash out mate. It'll all go straight back in, and at least you can see what you're doing. Clocks are easy, just 6 screws IIRC. Drop the steering wheel to it's lowest point. 2 screws on the bottom corners under the little covers (if you still have them) + 2 screws in the top/under part of the surround. When the surround is out, think there are just 2 more either side.

I did mine with the dash out (it was out anyway). I couldn't see how it was possible to do it without removing the dash. Having seen it there is no way for any amount of money I would attempt to do it without removing it. Good luck though ;-)
