L99 Power Point in dash??

Mine has come loose. Even the slide up door. How do I tighten it all up?

Thanks!

I have an aftermarket radio but pulling the dash in mine takes all of about a minute. It's just snapped in there, pull back and disconnect switches and off it comes. Oh, I do have my steering column cover off and I pull the shifter **** off to make it easier.

Agreed, block your back wheels so you can put the shifter in 1, then you can lower the steering wheel which gives you a bit more area to move the dash.

There's absolutely no way to remove the dash, with a double din in there. Trust me, I felt the agony, lol....Supercab, I ain't lying but I forgot. After leaving the dealership for vsm programming, I hit my bros shop. There is when I realized the hpop leak. I'm heading v out in garage now to start upping things apart. I'll have a pic/write up shortly, boss...

No emergency Timmy, your leak needs to be fixed first-WAY more important than my Power Point.

IIRC they are held in by three screws. One of mine ended up snapping the threaded portion off, so I had to glue it back in place.

Yo Cab.. Ok, like idi mentioned, there 3 screws. From the looks of it, if one of the "prongs" that holds the PowerPoint secure, is damaged, then I can see the "slider" being compromised. Other than that, looks to be a 1 unit deal. Possibly a screw can weaken the assy as well...
