Did this recently: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=600430 . Wish I had a how-to for you, but it was really just looking for bolts, and removing them. On the sides of the dash, you'll find a bolt, behind the radio/climate controls there's a bold, and there's a few here and there, just have to look around for them. Quite honestly, the dash removal only took about 30minutes, first time doing it. I recommend dropping the steering colum to avoid breaking the signal/wiper arms.

if you still don't see how they come out try what i do when i get stuck - grab and shake (given its not brittle) you can normally pinpoint where contact is made so you can work from there

what do you think about flat blacking the whole intior ive done a few pices just becuase im stuck inside, and it looks pretty uniq, you think that would hold out long or would it chip away, how can i seal it so it lasts, and keep it not glossy, its kinda like a rugged look.

rodrez flat-blacked one of my rear panels, since i hadn't recvd it yet from my friend, after a few coats, and a coating of formula, my other friends couldn't tell the difference. you might want to shoot a "clear coat" before hitting it up with formula or armor all, it should last awhile...good luck and keep us posted

There's a bolt right in the middle of the dash, where it meets the bottom of the window. You can get to it through the radio/climate control hole
