General Dashboard problem

Finally got the dashboard off, it was one screw holding it on. This screw was right in front of me and I'd dismissed this as a screw holding the dashboard on. Anyway after cutting the dashboard to pieces with some tool from b&q I found out it was this screw! Well it's off now anyway and now I've just got to fit the new dashboard now and remember what screw goes where!
The air bag is fitted too so will need help registering it to the car.
Shouldn't be long till its on the road!

Do you have any pictures of the whole procedure ? (y)
 
No unfortunately not, but I don't think how I did it would be recommended lol. If I had known where the missing bolt was that had held it on then it is really not that difficult at all. Just lots of screws to be taken off. Oh and the heater controls were the only real rubbish thing to get out. I broke mine as it all came apart and all the inside fell out, luckily I had a spare! Oh and there were two bolt/screw things under the glove box on the left, they were hard to get out, I had to cut them off with a multi tool as I had no other way of removing them. I just used another bolt from b&q to refit. I have pictures of that and I have pictures of the dashboard when it is only just attached to the car with the one screw. But that is it.

I did notice something though, the screw that I didn't know about that stopped me from getting the dashboard off, must be something that other people may struggle with. As the replacement dashboard I had had been cut where this screw would be lol.
Anyway it's all off and replaced and the car is almost ready for an mot.
Just a couple of things that need looking into.
