yeah, its simple. couple of screw drivers to take side vent out, just prises out. and then two screws under the steering column takes the top of that off, then theres 4 screws to take dial surround out. then out comes headunit and pull the heater dial off and the two sliders come out. there is a screw behind the dial under that and the panel comes out. then there are two more screws beneath that and then its a case of pulling it all out.

Did you take them off to paint them? I want to redo mine soon and don't know whether to take them off or how to get them off

Looks good though :)
