1. Remove the panel directly below the steering column, its snaps open from the top and pivots at the bottom, so pull from the top.
2. Remove 2 (7mm) screws holding the lower portion of the interment bezel (one on each side of steering wheel).
3. Remove the rubber tray on top of dash by just pulled upward and then remove the 7mm screw found under there.
4. Remove both center A/C vents, just turn them counter-clockwise till the click and then pull.
5. Putting your fingers through the A/C vent holes, you can now push the Window switch panel out from the inside and disconnect the wire harness.
6. There is one last 7mm screw inside below the window switch panel.
7. Now start gently pulling on the dash panel, starting near the left A/C vent area and working your way over to the top tray area and then down. It will pop up pretty easily. Just take care in the area around center A/C vents because the plastic is really thin around the snap clips and can break easily. (also, if you will put the steering wheel as low as you can get it, that will help give you some room when you start to pull it apart).
8. You're done.
