Dashboard Upper Panel Removal/Installation

NOTE: Take care not to scratch the dashboard and related parts.

1. Carefully insert a flat-tip screwdriver wrapped with protective tape into the slots (A) on both sides of the upper panel (B), then pull out each side of the panel back to detach the clips (C, D).

1. Pull the upper panel (A) in the direction shown to release the remaining clips, disconnect the hazard warning switch connector (B), and if equipped, sunlight sensor connector (C) and navigation subdisplay connector (D). Detach the harness clips (E), then remove the upper panel.

1. Install the panel in the reverse order of removal, and make sure each connector is plugged in properly.
