SI Board Swap Out Step #1
SI Board Swap Out Step #1
At the bottom of the photograph you can make out the lower trim panel.  This is a piece of hard plastic which runs below the steering column.  There is another large cover panel farther down (not shown) which covers up the pedal cluster and clutch master cylinder.  This must be removed first by unscrewing the quarter turn plastic screws along its upper edge.  Disconnect the "bong" and slide out this large cover panel.

Then you can remove the trim panel shown above.  This is a little tricky but not too bad.  The two arrows at the bottom show a threaded stud (left) and a threaded stud with a knurled knob screwed onto it (right).  These studs are molded into the plastic trim piece.  The studs go into the two holes in the dash shown by the upper two arrows.  The knurled knobs screw onto the studs from behind.  So to undo them you have to reach up and under the bottom of the dash.  They can then be loosened by hand (one of mine was missing which caused an annoying squeak).  Once the knurled knobs are removed you can pull off the lower trim panel.

This completes step one of the puzzle 8^)
