Hubby had to disconnect everything from the dash and instrument panel. It was all fished through the firewall and labeled. The reason for this is that when assembly begins and he is ready to completely rewire everything, he will know what goes where.
This is called experience. If you've done an auto project and not labeled, you experienced unnecessary grief.
Example: The Multi-Switch Terminal. This single item controls the ignition on/off, headlights, cowl light, dash light and dome light. Labeling is not only smart but somewhat necessary. If you can find schematics online for your vehicle, they will probably just show a picture of what the terminal looks like -- which isn't helpful. So in short: LABEL THINGS
The hardest part of this process was struggling with some of the rusty square nuts on the back of the dash.
After this unbolting and removal of things is complete, it enables hubby to take the entire cowl off in one piece. Additional stripping and sorting can be done after the cowl is on the garage floor.
