pullin dash
Thursday, December 21, 2006 8:26 PM
Ok i've searched and only found half of my question. I found that it would take me about 1 1/2 hours to pull the entire dash, other part of my question is, would it be possible to just drop the dash just enough that i could mount something to the fire wall beihind it and run wiring? I need to mount a relay back their and mount my door popper brain and run wires through the dash to each door. Or would it just be easier to pull the entier dash out? does the steering wheel have to be pulled off to do this?



I NEED A 00-02 SUNFIRE RK SPORT REAR LIP AND A 95-99 SUNFIRE WW FRONT LIP PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF U WANNA SELL!!

Both upper and lower should be that long... upper, 20 min tops.

this is what you do, crawl under the dash, pull the carpet back and mount whatever you want. this way if you have to get to it again, its not going to take forever to get to

You don't have to mount the relays to the firewall, zip tie them to something existing. I have my relays for my poppers right above the gas pedal in the wiring that's already there.

well i just want everything to look pro so if i have to sell the car it looks good and no one can second guess what i installed. That and if i go to a show it looks clean. I removed the dash pad (upper part) and, like i was talk, there is no room at all under it. None!! not even enough to mount a little dinky relay.

Bagedcav98- i cant mount the brain behind the carpet... or what are u talkin about? I've been under the dash and tried to mount stuff up there but their is a rubber mattin covering everything and its hard to get a screw started in it when i have no room to move.

thats a crap load of work just to mount some relays. If you brought it to a shop to do i can guarantee they wont be dropping the dash to mount anything. LIke a few people have said if you crawl under the dash and look up ull see some wiring taped up and in some loom. You can mount the brain up their and ull never be able to see it.
