Title: Back in the yard
Post by: mdr1220 on January 06, 2013, 03:15:58 PM
Finally found a tilt column to fit my car but had to go through the back of the dash to get every wire and connector to make sure I had everything. Took all of the trim and cluster out in one piece for the next guy to come along.;)

Dash was perfect, that is why I took it out in one piece. It also had the digital cluster in it, if you look to right in the second pic its on the seat. This car even had the ignition key that is why I messed with it.

You should grab the dash as well. An uncracked dash is REALLY hard to find these days.

Looking at the first pic..that dash looks shaged up to me. Just below and to the left of where the column was is bent the hell out.

@ThunderbirdSport302. The plastic dash came out in one piece. The parts that are bent back are metal frames that held the trim. I was chasing wires most people would not be as delicate.
