I'm trying to avoid taking out as much of the car's dash as possible, ideally none at all.

So I'm considering running a GPS antenna from my new head untit up inside the dash, out through the where the central instrument display unit is and fixing it to the bottom of the windscreen.

I can't see any screws fixing the instrument display into the dash - is there a series of clips / places to press which releases it?

Thanks,

Steve

Hi steveharman. If it's like the C3 (which I am quite sure it will be) then it just pulls up and off.

There is a video on youtube showing how to do it on the C3.

Brilliant, thanks. I'll give it a try tonight. I hate pulling bits of plastic! :-)
