Dash benzel install?

The wood "crap" on the dash of my 96 is cooked, faded and looks like shit! I purchased a benzel from a 94 V6 off ebay, and need to know how difficult is it to swap them out!

I see four screw holes on the one i purchased, but how do you get to the pair above the radio?

Thanks for any help in advance! JOE

removing that large dash bezel is pretty easy, there are 4 screws that hold it in, as you know.

to get to those screws above the radio, you need to remove the radio bezel, just get a flathead screwdriver and wedge it out

in the diagram, just start prying the bezel off at either of those locations marked by the green arrows.

Got er done! Piece a cake! I changed the other items in my dash to the shell! I removed the clock, flasher switch, and mirror adjuster from mine that I know work to the replacement!

Now I have extra's I still have wood to remove from the rest of my interior, so now I can practice
removing it from the old shell first...It's OEM, shit is really on there!!

Thanks for the help Terrynham!
