Beat me to it haha. To the OP, you can have the dash out in 30 minutes if you've got the basic tools listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Getting the dash out is easy, getting it back in is a pain.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comanchemodder Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I don't have a rivet gun thought. Humm... are you going heavy duty and changing out plastic parts? I found on my 87 no rivet gun is required. Its all screws and bolts. The only rivets I saw was holding the plastic to the sheet metal frame; which is removed as a single unit.
