I have un screwed and pulled out the dash panels onthe main dash board.
I have removed the screws holding the upper dash metal strip that seemed to hold the upper dash padding in place. however, though the dash pad is loose at the top, I still can't remove it. It seems to be held in in a way I can't see. Can you help?
