B14 Dashboard removal
Hey How did you get the dash out because I have a B14 and I removed the following;

(2) 10mm bolts by the windscreen,
(1) 10mm on the left near the door,
(1) 10mm on the right near the door,
(1) 10mm behind the guage cluster,
(2) Screws on either side at the base on the centre stack,
(1) screw connecting the right A/C vent to the duct ,
(1) screw connecting the left A/C vent to the duct.

But it still wont budge what am i missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I just did this the other day. Had to unbolt the passenger airbag from under the dash, and remove the A-pillar trim on both sides. You will have a few wires, and maybe a few screws/10mm bolts near the center. You will have to get a tamper proof T-50 Torx bit. They are the ones with holes in the center. This is a full set I bought from Summit, but I believe Lowes sells them individually for about $5-8.00 each.

Also, the surround piece that house the radio, hvac and cubby/cup holder needs to come out. Everything under that comes out too.

Look under the airbag on the passenger side. I believe there are 4 t-50 torq screws holding them in. These must be removed in order for the dash to come out.

I'll pray for you. Removing the dash is so annoying.

You get the hang of it once you know what you are doing. Done it many times already.

I took that out already, the part of the dash that wont budge is the center towards the windscreen. So that why i was asking if a missed anything there because I don't see anything more to remove. But I'm gonna try removing the A-pillar trim first as you did.

If it's the center of the windshield that's not budging, there's a long nose tab on the dash at that area that goes into the firewall. Gonna have to give it a good tug to pull out. Removing the a-pillar covers would help.
