I thought about pulling mine part when I painted the dash a month or
so ago. Too much trouble, you had to pop out dozens of little discs
pressed onto pins that are part of the pad. It would have taken all
day, and they are hard enough to get off that if you tried to pry the
dash up you would bend and dent the dash. The dash must be pulled. Not
all that hard, it will come off in an half if you've ever done it
before. Maybe an hour and a half if you haven't. No really special
tools needed.

Just some good thin prybar to get under those #$$% fasteners.
