98 200sx dash removal

sup guys!
im doing a lil work on my 200 before a car show (red and blue) and want to do two things (well more than 2, but 2 that involve this) i want to put strobes in my AC vents, and i want to do some glow in the dark paint on the vents as well
so anyways, i was wondering if anyone could tell me how to pull the dash, or even an image that shows the locations of the screws would be nice
thanks a lot!

Just kinda take everything apart and remove every damn bolt you can see. A Haynes/Chilton's manual may show the location of all the attachment points, but in reality, they're not hard to find. Pretty easy.

just remove the top stuff first for example... gauge cluster housing, peice under the steering columb, plastic around the radio, glove box, just watever you need to take off. sky's the limit when you have a nissan and a philips head screwdriver.

ummm, i jad trouble with a couple of the pieces when i triued one time...after removing all the obvious screws. maybe im just afraid to put more force into it.
all in all, i dont have anything useful to contribute to this thread. just thought id share my (small) experience with the situation

and if you want to REMOVE the dash...I think you need one of those torx wrenches for the airbag.

Like Mike said...the vents do not come out.
