993 dash
Does anyone know how many studs there are holding down the 993 dash and where they are located?

upper or lower dash?
To remove the upper dash, here's the procedure: Place masking tape over the defroster vents. Remove the screws that hold the plastic defroster deflector in place. Remove the two other screws that were under the plastic defroster deflector. Be careful NOT to drop any screws! On both sides to the dash, there are black plastic covers. Gently pry that out. It is just held in by friction. In the "middle" hole under the black plastic cover, put a phillips screwdriver in there and fish around until you find a screw head. Unscrew that. Repeat on the other side. Remove the clock gauge. The clock is just held in by a LOT of friction. I used a small screwdriver gently pry the clock away from the dash, and then used LOTS of finger strength to finally get the clock out. I had worked up a good sweat after just pulling out the clock! With the clock removed, feel around to the right and you'll feel a small stud with a bolt on it. This is that last remaining piece holding your dash in place. I used a 10 MM socket head and carefully removed the bolt. Be careful NOT to drop anything here! |

Okay, perfect. I wasn't sure how many studs actually hold it down and I thought my dash had some missing but I have the one near the clock so I'm good to go. Thanks!
