    now open your glove compartment and remove the screw that is inside to the right side of it.... and remove the plastic... I didnt... but to play safe...
    you should.... and after you do so... you will meet this screw..

    very straight forward.. nice ^_^

    what are you gonna do with it now that you've taken it out though.. i dont believe you can buy many things that will replace that whole peice... not yet anyways... unless you make some custom dash?

    or if the purpose of this was to just get behind it and do some wiring or something... ??
