Sorry to hear you're having problems with this.
In short YES you HAVE to remove the dashboard.
Please take many digital pics along the way and save the bolts that are alike in sandwich bags. Save all bolts in bags of some kind - having a camera will save you a lot of pulled out hair - seriously - use a camera if possible. Pros do until they know the procedure well.
I personally remove the passenger seat but most people don't - todays seats are easy so I pull them out.
Best of it
Testimonial: "right at the end i broke the retainer door. had to go to the wreckers and pull another dash. got part free of charge and put my car back together."
