On my 93 GP I pulled the dash pad off without pulling the grills out, than pulled the clips off with a pliars once I had the pad flipped over

 

Exactly what I did. Little screwdriver to open them up a bit

so the tiny screwdriver worked to open them up?

 

I have to paint mine with fabric spray. I was thinking about masking them off and just leave them in there, but I also have a pretty nice mack tools pick I bought not too long ago that may get those little basterds.

 

now that you got me thinking this over.. :thumbsup:

I've become extremely good at removing/reinstalling the dashpad :lol: It's not hard at all now that I know how to do it. I've had it out about 4 or 5 times in the last few weeks. I'll have to remove it yet again, because I want to hit it with fabric spray as well

not sure if they are the same but for the clips for the door panels I took a 6 or 7mm socket (not sure on size) and ground the outside of the socket down till it fit into the countersunk part of the clip then ratcheted it out while prying a little bit with a screwdriver.

LMFAO tell me about it! I've honestly lost track of how many times I've had that thing in and out of my car.

 

I started doing a two-tone theme with my interior. One day my fiancee went with me to a local junkyard (believe it or not, she loves going) and there was a nice GP there with interior pieces I needed, including the dash pad and the HUD projector. She had this bewildered look on her face when I told her the number of pieces I was going to remove. I looked at her and said, "Don't worry, I've done this about a time or twenty." I think I had the whole dashboard disassembled in 15 minutes, much to her relief/joy.

 

:lol:

Yeah, I've got it down to about 15 minutes from completely together to dashpad out. However, getting the stupid HUD clipped back in took me about half hour last time! :cussing: :lol:
