So im basically guttin the car to change interior color and after 4 hours all I have to do is remove the dashboard. Ive almost removed all the bolts and screws but the climate control screws are a pain to get out and the one nut on the passenger airbag :x .

Do I have to remove the climate control?? Anyone know how to remove the passenger airbag??

Thanks!

Taking the dash off wasn't that diffucult, 2 bolts on both sides and i think 1 or 2 in the middle, once you pull it out on the diver side is the main clip to unplug all electrical harneses, you will have to unhook the the climate control temp wire. I belive there is a harness behind the temp cluster you also have to unhook.

Thats all I recall being behind my '93 Sedans dash. They dont have pass airbags so I dont know anything about how to unhook it.

my EG didn't have the pass airbag. But try removing the glove box completely. That's how I was able to get to the airbag bolts on my EK, with some long extensions.
