I am looking to re trim the 3 padded parts of the dash .The small pad just to the right of the centre console is easy you can feel the "Christmas tree" fasteners underneath.

What's the best way to remove the other two . Does the one on the front of the dash passenger side just pull off and if so does it give access to the one on the top of the dash passenger side or does the radio have to come out?

Thanks in advance for the help.

The hardest one is passenger side on top. Think it's a ally plate with the trees on. So fills like it bends a bit.
Do the trees stay in place or do you have to get under the dash to restore?

If they've never been off they can be buggers to remove. Be extremely careful when they finally detach - windscreens have been known to crack.
Thanks for the thought ,but I manned up as suggested ,they are all off safely .Thanks once again.
