Re: Instrument Panel Removal 1965 Dodge Coronet Now to the DASH Pad.

The dash pad on the '65 Plymouth B-Body is only held in by those clips. No nuts/bolts.

Thanks for all the input and help. It made the job a lot easier.

I was able to remove it at 11:30 P.M.

Now onto the Dash Pad. When I reach around back I only feel clips like those used in the door panels. I thought there were 4 nuts to a bolt going through the dash? Any help would again be appreciated.

Again thanks for all the help.

David,

That's the bracket you need to remove to drop the column down.
