remove the glove box, panel on drivers side, center console and there is about 5 bolts and 1 bold on the steering column that holds the dash in. its really not that bad to do. _________________

One suggestion I have for this is you don't have to take the steering wheel apart and then out with the fancy puller. I just yanked out the whole column. There's 2 or 3 bolts on the column, plus one holding it to the rack. That last bolt is inside the boot at the base of the column inside the car.
I wrestled around with the wheel until I resorted to the column. I'm sure if I had the tool it would have been easier. But if you don't, then just take the colume out with the wheel still on it.  _________________

You don't even have to take the column *out* to remove the dash. You can simply unbolt the column from the supports and let it drop down and rest on the front seat. Leaves plenty of clearance to r&r the dash. _________________

to get the steering wheel off, atleast in my ph 2 Z all I had to do was unhook 6 trox bolts behind the horn and presto it was off, but yeah I just dropped the column and then pulled the dash, then I pulled the column out I wasn't planning on putting any of it back in, but you don't have to remove the steering column. _________________
