s3 dashboard removal
Discussion
Er...
I've been under the dash for 30 minutes now and I can't find the nuts that hold the dash onto the chassis on the centre console. The ones at the end are no problem. Can anyone post a diagram, photo or other help for an obvious idiot. Thanks in advance, the heater cable has totally locked up and needs to be replaced.

Just done mine...
This is a bit of a pain of a job, mainly because you can't see what you're trying to do and you need the wrists of a contortionist to access some of the nuts! Also, the nyloc nuts that were used on my dash mean that you have to use the ratchet/spanner all the way. I'll definitely be replacing mine with a standard nut and spring washer!
Many thanks to bugsy for the tips & advice
- dropping the column really helps with that tricky nut between the instruments and heater controls!
