Default Remove the entire dashboard!!! Help

I want to replace my entire instrument console. It’s a long story but I have a big hole in the left side that drives my OCD nuts.

ive taken the left side panel off that houses the gauges and radio.

I’ve gotten most of the hvac knobs removes.

Anyone have experience tasking the rest of the dash off? Or any likes or videos they know of?

this is what im looking to replace

it has to be pretty straight forward. Just lots of screws and clips holding it in place.

You don't have to remove the entire dash to get to the gauges and radio.

The hole is on the lower left part of dash. It’s above the speaker grate to the left of the steering wheel. I actually found a video that shows how to remove the front speakers, which needs the front dash removed. Yes-a lot of screws. Ugh

This guy replaced the Heater Core the hard way where he shows how he removed the front dash, along with a hundred other items.
