Removing the laminated dashboard.

[TV8]

I have bought some vinyl to cover the dash and wondered if there are any hidden screws or fittings that I need to be aware of. I have new LED's for the heater controls and know how to get the dash top off and it looks simple enough...

All advice appreciated!

Thanks

Once the dash top is off (be careful not to snag the vinyl) it just lifts out...

I had 2 screws through the base of the heater control ..

be careful of the metal strips that support (behind it) as they are sharp as buggery

Should be 3 if its a pre-facelift car.

With the radio panel there is 4 little hidden screws either side of where the radio comes out

Thanks both. Just the sort of things I was thinking about. Does the heater control have to come off?

Yes, you leave the gubbins behind attached to the cables.
