If anyone wants to see a video of the dash going back in, I posted one on
youtube a while ago:

It's a time-lapse of the whole process, so definitely not instructional like
Neil's, but maybe worth a look if you will be doing the procedure. I had
been dreading it for a long time, but it turned out to be far easier than I
expected! As you can see, the dashboard goes right back into place and then
you spend an hour reconnecting all the wires, vent hoses, etc.

Two tips: remove the center defroster vents before you reinstall - makes
seating the dash way easier, and be sure the steering wheel is unlocked
otherwise you might wonder why the heck you can't get the bracket to line
up... duh!
