Follow Dave Morrison's photos, up to photo 22 - it is an excellent reference
Go under the dash and remove the lower plastic coverings - Dave Morrison’s, photos 26-32 is similar. This includes removal of the ventilation ducts. Now you should be able to reach underneath and get to most of the items inside.
photo driver's side, showing seat belt bar unbolted. The arrangement is similar to Dave Morrison's
Go back to Dave Morrison's photos 32 and 35. The center console should now be out of the way
I would skip over most of Dave's stuff, up to photo 48. I did not find it necessary to go that deep into the panel, but photo 48 will show you how to pull the speedometer panel out. The best way is to get to the cable with your hand from underneath and spin the retaining nut off. The push out the speedometer panel just enough to unbolt the pressure sensor. It will be on the left of the panel. The you should be able to get the panel into your hands and disconnect all the wires.
Go to Dave's photos 49 and 50. Here is where you will remove the headlights switch and disconnect the emergency brake.
From Dave's write up: "Remove the dash from the passengers side first and move it out the passengers door. You will have to lift the dash off the defroster tubes on the evap box. Once lifted off them, it will come out. Watch the turn signal stick. Don’t break it. Don't twist the dash as this may cause cracking.
