Re: How do get the face of my dash off a 2001 honda...
Hello,
To remove the center dash panel to access your radio follow these simple steps -
- First there are three Phillips screws that secure this dash panel to the main dash assembly.One of the screws is hidden behind the clock.
- The clock unsnaps from the dash panel, but requires a very small flat head screwdriver or similar flat tool. You need to Insert the tool into the side gap between the edge of the clock assembly and the dash panel. Gently pry out that edge of the clock. Insert your fingers into the gap and pull firmly to completely remove the clock from the dash panel.
- Now you need to locate and remove that (hidden) Phillips screw.
- Now look on the curved underside of the dash panel. Locate and remove those two Phillips screws.
- All screws securing the dash have now been removed. The plastic dash panel itself snaps into the main dash assembly. Begin by pulling gently on either the bottom curve of the dash panel or one of the top corners of the dash panel. Continue to pull until all sides of the plastic dash panel have slightly pulled away from the main dash assembly. Now pull the entire plastic dash panel away from the main dash assembly.
- Now turn the panel around exposing the wires attached to the back side. Unplug all connectors attached to the air conditioner controls. The radio is secured by four screws, your vehicle will either have four Phillips screws or four 8 mm bolt screws. Remove the screws//bolts and pull the radio out of the dash. Unplug the wire harness connector and the black antenna cable from the rear of the radio.
- The center dash is now removed and you now have full access to your radio.
Regards,
Tony
