yeah i have been wondering how to take it out also because I recently painted my interior and I didn't quite get all the way in the front where the window meets the dash and you can notice it pretty well. I need some help.

Buy a haynes. They have pictures for every step of the removal along with instructions. I found that I needed to take the steering wheel off too, which the manual didn't make too clear at first. But everything else was very clear. LABEL your screws and such that you use... DO IT. There are so many, on your first time you will get confused. I am.Comment

It's really not that hard to do if you're patient and you'll want a friend there to help you with the actual removal when you're ready.
If this is a '92-'93 disconnect the airbag first!!!!!
To start of you'll take out the shifter console. Unthread the shift knob and take out 4 screws that hold it in.
Then get your head in the floor board and look around behind the radio area while one of your hands turns the temperature control knob. The lever you see moving is the lever you disconnect.
Now disconnect all three connectors by the fuse box in the driver's foot well.
Pry off the emblem on the steering wheel exposing a 19mm socket that will need a long extension and remove the steering wheel a few inches and disconnect the connector on the back. (different procedure for '92'93).
Once that's off you'll need to remove the plastic covering over the column with the 5 screws underneath.
Now I can't remember exactly the number of screws to remove on this step but you'll figure it out. Just remove the signal/wiper combination switch.
Once all of that is done take out the clock carefully to expose the mounting bolt. It is a 10mm bolt. There are two more on each side underneath the plastic plugs and the last two are on the metal bracket connecting the dash to the shifter tunnel.
Just have a friend help you pull it out and you're good.
I may have forgotten something but that's pretty much as good as I can do from memory.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!Comment

You have to take off the bezel, which is like 12 screws or something. Before taking off the dash. I'd do the steering wheel and the plastic around shifter first.Comment

I just did this
I will write a DIY sometime next week when I get back from Seattle. But it is really easy. The only tip I can give you off hand is to pull the top trim pieces and pull the dash from the driver side (steering wheel) first. Pull it STRAIGHT out not up or anything. That is the only way to get around the Key ignition. I would have to say the hardest part of the entire thing is getting the clock out without breaking it. I broke mine
Before
Nothing
After
If you have any specific questions before I write the DIY just ask

Yeah, write it up. I liked the overall finish.Comment

i did it once, i'll never do it again so much wiring and stuffComment

dont forget the three wiring connectors under the radio... the overall procedure is really simple though. Just take your time, alot of stuff needs to come off, but its all simple... just need a phillips and a couple sockets.
label your shit... it will make it way easier. and the guage pod is tricky to get back in... play with it, it'll go.RIP
