88 civic hatch dash removal
does anyone have a diagram no how to take the dash off. i am tryin to put a crx si dash into the hatch but it seems there are screws that i cant see to take them off.. any info on how to take it off will be appreciated-thanx
When I did this, I remember there being several bolts behind the glove box, i think there was one behind the little change holder. Also, the wiring for your gauge cluster will have several plastic fasteners holding the wiring to the dash. you are going to have to cut these to get the dash out, dont yank on them. If you havent yet, remove the steering wheel, center console, metal bracket that holds the radio and heater controls in place, and take it apart in as many peices as you can. I remeber there are also bolts behind the side vents on the dash that lead to the side window defrosters. Pull gently on the dash and where you feel resistance, make sure you check for any kind of wires or screws that could hold anything together. Make sure your hood release lever is removed too, this will keep your dash in place. Hope some of this helps.
well i got everything lose.. except for this wire which seems to run through rear of the dash. it is screwed behind behind the dash on the left of where the guage cluster is suppose to be.. i dont know if i should cut the wires ..is there any posible way i could get to it i can fit any screwdriver in there to get it out...? any advice would be appreciated...
i was wondering how you take off the steering wheel on a 88 civic hatchback...do you just remove the cover that secures the horn..?

Do not cut those wires, you should be able to pulle the dash out a little, enough to get back there with some sharp scissors or a knife to cut the plastic clip that holds the wires to the dash.
