Ewen Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I've bookmarked a couple of good dash removal guides already, but I cant find one that mentions the gauge binacle on a facelift...how does this come off please ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I dunno what a binacle is but anyway the dash comes off just the same as on the old style Supras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I think the only thing more aggravating on the facelift dash to remove is the bit the goes over the dials, as it clashes with the steering column , but it does just pull off once you've removed the screws. Bit of wangling and you'll be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 It does the same thing on the old style ones as well Faye. Obviously remove the top section first then unclip the fascia over the clocks, adjust the steering column to its lowest position and tilt the bottom of the fascia towards you - it looks like the two locating legs will snap off against the steering column but actually it comes out perfectly if you're careful.

Ah, I must be doing something wrong, its just I've just never had a problem getting that bit of dash out of Keith's car, but mines a barsteward.

Put it down to girliness Please don't put it down to that - it would mean I'm a big girl. Mine is also a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put it down to girliness It must be my girliness rather than yours, because I find both types fiddly, whereas you only have a problem with the facelift ones Please don't put it down to that - it would mean I'm a big girl.
