it wasnt that bad to change the heater matrix done in half a shift  :) . the only thing you need to watch is the wiring loom is clip on to various points behind the dashboard so be patient anyone who does do it them selfs  :)

had a look at the link there you posted there fair enough looks an easier way to do it . how long did it take to do it that way .
am sorry but a wouldnt cut any part of the dashboard it only takes minutes to remove the centre console and few hours to remove the dash  :)

Quite agree. I think the dashboard cut that's mentioned in the guide becomes virtually unspottable if done neatly. Never had to attempt this yet thankfully (I'll probably regret saying that!)

I appreciate a job well done, but I'd probably do more damage doing the job 'properly' than cutting the dash  ;D
