I lost a few screws in there from my gauge cluster x_x How long would it it take me to remove the entire dash, estimate? Thanks

Took me about 2 days, but a total of like 4 hours. I did not have any clue, or find the DIY when I took mine out. I had to figure it all out on my own. It isnt that hard, one person job. I lost a lot of screws too, well couldnt find where they went back in at. I would say a couple hours you should be able to have it apart. The steering wheel takes a little time, with the torx screws. They were a pain to get off. Unplug the battery when you are unplugging electrical. I only unplugged mine for the airbags. Find out how long to wait after you disconnect the battery. If you dont wait like 3 or 10 minutes, i forget what one, the airbags can deploy. There are also directions for hooking them back up. I believe DIYs somewhere. When you plug the airbags back in, if you have to unplug them, make sure you arent sitting in the seat. Just incase your head gets blown off from the airbags. Mine were fine, didnt go off, but I was ducking when I started my car, incase. Good luck, shouldnt be too hard, or too long.

I put some screws in my CD Player pocket, and I didnt even know there were some holes near the back. I took a hard turn, and I heard the screws go bye bye I would need to remove the entire dash to get the screws?

I looked in majestic honda's website, and I can't find the specific screws for my gauge cluster.

hahahaha those lil holes are a bitch.. but no you should have to take the whole dash apart to get them back.. just the pieces around the headunit and the part around the lighter.. and depending on where they landed maybe the center deck thing(where the cupholder and shifter are).. theres a bunch of diys on how to do that stuff..

theres not really anywher for them to fall other than straight down.. i suggest just hitting a few potholes and seeing if you can hear them rattle.. also check the floor they might be sitting on the passangers side..

At the Honda Dealership, you can get some screws for exactly what you want. Look on the computer they are looking at, and point to what you need. They CAN help you, and shouldnt be more than a couple bucks (still a rip), but thats not bad. You can try taking the area by you deck out, with the a/c controls and stuff. I am pretty sure they probably fell down further than that though, maybe your center console will let you access them as well. Just start taking stuff apart, and putting it back. If you dont hear them rattle, I would buy new ones. Rattling is the only reason I would take the clips out of my dash that I lost , but they dont, so I dont care, buy new ones honestly.

Just took the vic out, and yeah there is a hell of a lot of rattling. I really hope they didnt go too deep so I can get them out quick.

yer nowhere near any of the airbag stuff so dont bother.. screws dont fall up so removing the whole dash is pointless


they are in there somewhere..

just try not to mess with any wires in yellow loom? I believe those are the airbag and SRS plugs and harnesses.
