It just takes time. If you dont rush it, you should be fine.

it's pretty easy (I did it myself) but be prepared to spend some time contorting yourself in ways you never though you could. oh, one more thing -

TAKE OUT YOUR STEERING WHEEL, it will make life a lot easier. I ended up cracking my windshield, like some people, because I didn't take out my steering wheel. Also, remember to unplug the battery before you start to undo your dash.

It really depends on your skill level. Definitely harder than changing your oil, but easier than say, swapping an H22 into a CRX.

As stated, you definitely want to disconnect your battery, and be prepared to become an amateur contortionist. Also, pay close attention while you are taking the old dash out. This can help you immensely when it comes time to put the new one in.
