Does anyone have a good guide for this?

How much time will I need?

Thanks for help

It's a pain in the ass.

Remove the A pillars and remove the 10mm bolts behind them

Remove the top speaker grilles and remove the 2 10mm bolts holding the speakers in.

Remove the dash bolt next to the top speakers.

Remove the cluster hood (one screw underneath and then pull firmly).

Remove the silver (or "carbon") radio trim panels. Couple screws behind the pass side piece.

Remove The center air vent.

Remove the stereo (4x 10mm)

Remove HVAC controls

Remove the cluster trim and gauge cluster. Remove the screw behind cluster.

Pull the cover plates off the end of the dash (both sides). Remove any screws.

Open Glove box and remove all screws.

The glove box and driver side knee panel (the big piece of plastic under the steering column) Should be removable now. Look for screws with the heads facing the motor near the center console on the drivers side. They hold on the OBD2 port. (I left this bracket and the radio antenna bracket off. Just found places to zip tie them)

Remove the passenger side airbag. 2x 10mm bolts. Place a small flat head or knife blade under the yellow part of the clips and pop it up.

It should be ready to come out now. First shot will take you a couple hours. Last time i pulled mine, It took 18 minutes.
