Dash removal questions

I plan at some point on swapping out my interior and getting all red pieces.

Does the main dash piece come out without having to completely remove the dash? I'd rather not have to go hell dealing with a million wires.
I've also seen people get things called coverlays that go over the dash, could that work? Would any gray pieces still be showing if I get one of those?

I'm not talking about the dash pad, I mean the main dash piece. I highlighted it in this picture. It's the part the dash pad connects to

Some good info from another forum here: Dash Removal 1992-1996

Also relevant for 1997 F250HD/F350s.
