Default Dash replacement

Hi all,

I have just received a second hand dash venner as the small cracks in my airbag cover turned into large ones since we had some sunny weather.

I was intending to replace the airbag cover asap, then probably swap the rest over when I receive the real dial kit i just ordered.

Does anyone have have tips on changing the airbag cover and vent surrounds?? I can only find guides for the center and drivers side pieces.

Also I will have the old pieces of dash for sale in the near future if anyone is interested??

Just wondering, do you mean wood panel ? Not sure where else there is an air bag wrt the dash. Just reread, you can pry it out with your fingers, air bag cover 1st then center.

You should check the recent post by Michaelh center vent repair. It has photos and tips.

Cheers that is perfect, I like to check for hidden fixings before I start pulling.

I also need to repair the vents too!!!
