Tried taking my dash pad off the other day, one screw is so rusted when I tried taking it out it stripped it a bit. It will not budge(Screw on the back of the dash close to the windshield). Any advice on getting this screw out? I'm trying to take the dash pad off to restore it.

How is your windshield? Just thinking that if it was scheduled for replacement, access to the screw would be greatly enhanced.

JGreen236, have you seen the type of screwdriver used for appliances with tight places? It is shaped like an "L" or "Z", sometimes with a flat blade on one end and a phillips head on the other. Just a thought!

Yea I tried getting them through NPD but i'd have to wait till next Tuesday until they got in. Checked Summit Racing and I managed to pay for a Saturday delivery for the same price as NPD had them in store. I'm excited to put them in along with some new gaskets to stop my oil leak.

I use Westley's Bleach White to clean my engine before and after I work on it. Don't knock it till you've tried it, working on a clean engine is much easier.
