I agree … I've pulled two dashes; it's not that hard of a job.

Hint you'll need … release the plastic pins from "under the dash" with long needle-nose pliers. You'll know what I mean when you get there.

I assume you are talking about the pins at the windshield vents... That was the most difficult part of the entire dash removal, and it wasn’t even that difficult.

I have had my windshield replaced... I would rather RE&RE the dash vs. the windshield.

The dash removal is fairly straight forward. Follow the FSM, you can have it removed within 2 hours... We are in similar life stages. If I can do it, you’ll be able to, too.

It's been a while but after doing it a few times in one of my previous cars dash removal took me less than 30 min. if I remember correctly. The issue with the Z is how tight it is to work on for big guys.

From my experience,

Step 1- remove the seats.
Step 2- remove the console
Step 3- follow the FSM to remove the dash.

Plenty of room to work once the seats and console are out.

To remove the windshield you need to remove the b-pillars (the tabs will more than likely break), remove the outer a-pillars, remove the wipers and lower cowl, and unplug the rear view mirror. Once that’s done you need to cut out the windshield and find a safe place to store it. The glass and metal frame on the vehicle need to have the left over urethane removed prior to installation. The glass should have guides on it to help with alignment/spacing during the installation process.

It might be too late, but try this guide!
