My  mechanic tells me he needs to take the dash apart to replace the  master

available before I drop it off.

Is this true, do you need to  take the dash apart?

More  BS from those who don't know what they are doing !  It a simple job,
removal of the instrument cluster is all that's needed.  The  worst part will
be opening the bleeders on the rear wheel cylinders without  breaking them off
!!
