I got a replacement dash board for 1990 240sx. Can't get the dashboard out mainly due to the piece around the steering wheel not enuf clearance to pull out.

Dash is completely loosened already. Hints to remove and reinstall.
Thanks.

No need to completely remove them, just loosen them to lower the column by ~2 inches.

Look in the FAQ forum for my tach swap thread. It show you where those bolts are.

Get another friend to help you if possible. I did it myself in 3 hours thats because I took my time. I had to pull down the column while gentlely pulling out the dash.
