So I saw someone say that alternative is take the dash out? Meaning instrument cluster?
This is getting disappointing.

They had to be rounded off and/or wrong socket (not deep enough) before hand. I've had those two nuts off and impacted back on a couple times dealing with my track car build and they don't have a mark on them.
Dash is easy really, just a lot of crap to take off. Center console, hvac, radio, a pillar trim, speaker covers, lower dash panels, OBD2 plug, pass airbag, etc.
After doing it a few times it's easy. The OBD2 plug sucks the most. Now my dash is held in with 6 screws.. obd2 sits where hvac was. Makes taking out the dash a 1 minute job
