Removing Lower Dash Panel Problem??

ZiggyB · 11-10-04, 04:22 PM

Was going to help change out my friend's main fuel relay on his 95 coupe and after reading all the old threads on this it sounded pretty simple. We got all the lower mount screws off the panel but the part at the upper corner where the black courtesy light and TCS button is it's stuck and we don't want to pull this and break the bracket behind is plastic I believe. What's going on here it doesn't budge and I dont see any mounting screws? Frustrated!! Please help or post any old how-to steps.. I think MikeD might have photos on this. Thanks.

You have to pull out the courtesy light/TCS switch, and behind that is one more screw.

Hi Ziggy,
that what you searched for? Behind The Dashpanel. Or do you need the Complete Removement? Or do you need other pics, like inside the Relay Station of the plastic bracket behind the Dash Panel? Just tell me and I upload it for you. No prob my friend. -Mike

Just take a flathead screwdriver and stick it in the tab and pry it towards you. You won't break the tab. You just gotta show it who's boss.

Well, a big thanks to MikeD and all others for the pics and advice. It was actually real easy once I carefully popped the dimmer/TCS panel seeing that 3rd screw attached behind. Now when mine eventually poops out it should be a breeze.. Since I helped save my friend some serious cash with the DIY he's buying my main relay.
