I took apart the Dash of my JL... Its simple...

I watched U Tube Videos so I could become an Instant Master, and what do ya know it worked...

So I ripped my dash all apart so I could tuck the wires I was adding into the jeep and make it look clean...

I also have since updated to the Spiral wound Cables in ten foot lengths and pay attention to how you route and you can make it all but seamless...

The climate control gauges cluster snaps straight out all you need to do is pry gently on one side or the other the idea grip would be a little section left side and a small section right side then yank towards your chest straight back and the clips all release outward...

Then look there are screws holding in the rubber boot around the radio face and also then you see the metal frame...

I routed my wires through and around without removing much the trim piece across the dash in leather remove the single screw holding it top right of radio face under rubber boot you will see it remove that then grab one edge at the end of the strip drivers side or passenger side and gently pry outward in sections as you move from one side to the other removing it you will get the idea after you hear the first one break what not to do....Just kidding relax buttercup its not that tricky and you should only hear the release of the plastic clips and if you do lose one ot two clips this is red neck free shit your doing so worse thing is you buy a new trim piece and your still ahead, but odds are your clips are just fine they havent had ten yrs to sun rot on ya yet... 🙂
