Default Required tools for EG dash removal.

I am about to run to the junk yard to pull a dash out of a '94 coupe and don't want to drag my whole tool cabnet with me. What tools do I need to remove the dash?

I am guessing a 10mm socket, stubby philips head screw driver, and an interchangable magnetic screw driver, and a mini flathead for prying. Is there anything else I need? the steering wheel is already dropped and the cluster is already out too. I searched and found nothing of substantial help. TIA!

1) Unscrew your gauge cluster bezel and pop it off (must remove hazard button)
2) Unscrew your gauge cluster and unplug it then remove
3) Remove the lower part below your radio (just hunt for screws)
4) Lie on the floor and look up and the bottom of the climate control and remove screws
5) Remove and unplug climate control
6) Remove steering column plastic by carefully popping it off one side at a time
7) Pop out the top vent in the center and unscrew the bolt
8) There are two bolts on either side, remove them
9) There is one bolt on the center below the radio, remove that
10) Your dash is free but now you need to drop the steering column. Get on the floor and remove the two nuts then go lower and remove the two bolts then slide the stieering column to the floor.
11) Slide dash up over the steering wheel and then disconnect any random plugs
12) Have a

To actually answer your question you'll need a 10mm, 12mm, extension, phillips, a flathead to pry out little things. That's it really. If you're taking the heat and ac stuff then some needle nose pliers and an exacto knife to cut and remove the heater hoses from the core.
