Get the Dash off of a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix

It's easy. All you need is a Phillips screwdriver.

Steps

  1. Under the steering wheel, down near the pedals, locate the 2 screws you need to take out. You may have to lay down on the floor and look up.
  2. Unscrew those two screws.
  3. Sit in the driver's seat, grab the area where you just took the screws out, and pull towards you. It is only held on by clips.
  4. Next, you can pull off the other piece that covers the gauges and stereo. That whole thing is held on by clips only. Don't lose the clips.

Tips

  • If you have fog lights, you have to make sure you pull the top panel out only a couple of inches, then unplug the fog light switch from behind it. After doing so, you can pull the rest off.
  • The top piece is much easier to get off if you move the steering wheel as low as it can go.
  • Be sure not to lose the clips.

Warnings

  • If something isn't coming off, don't keep pulling. Figure out where it is being held up and focus the pulling with both hands just in that area. Most likely, it is just a tight clip.
