86 Camaro Dashpad Removal

Hello again

First off let me appologize for my lazyness on the search item this time. Silly internet connection keeps timing out for some reason which is probably due to our storms in the area.

My question is with regards to the dashpad removal on an 86 Camaro. Is it required to remove the instrument panel (Speedo & tach assembly) to remove the dashpad for some repair work or any other area of the dash that I may not be thinking of ? Also does anyone happen to have a picture of the screw locations by chance for this procedure ?

Any comments appreciated and thanks for your time

No. Half dozen screws or so along the bottom lip, four in the upper defrost area. Remove screws, lift pad off. Fifteen minutes tops.

Yeah, it's really simple.

Just remember that the pad will be HOT if you've left it in the sun for a little while...
