PROPER way to remove drivers side dash?

I'm sure I could start tugging on it and the clips would show themselves, but I'd rather not break any unseen clips or screw points. Is there a picture aided how-to for the removal of the drivers side of a dash on a 2012 f250? My tuner comes today and I'd prefer a clean install.

Thanks,
Jon

If it's not too late this may help.

Thanks

No problem, did you use H&S factory paint matched dash adapter thing P/N 31304? (this one that has been sitting on my desk for a year). Just wondering how it looks, if its worth putting on there.

Thanks

I'm not terribly impressed with the dash mount to be honest. I need to find a way to secure it to the dash before I'll be partially satisfied

Thanks, I was wondering that myself. Just a couple pieces of two sided tape is all that is on there. I may just leave mine as is.

I have mine just sitting on dash without any tape yet,looks to me on mine that u need to buy a thicker piece or double it up in the back by the windshield.It blends nicely to the interior and can hardly notice it.
