My dash is not fully down on the drivers windshield corner. I'd like to remove it and correct whatever problem is there. What are the steps? Thanks!

It's a mess. If you want to completely remove it, you need to basically pull all of the interior trim starting with the front door seals and then work your way in. I've dismantled one at a self-serve yard before and it took a few hours to get the whole thing removed.

In your case, it may just be a loose clip at the bottom of the a-pillar.

I have no steps but can confirm, to fully remove the dash you need to remove the driver and passenger A pillar trim, the door liner, and then pull the radio trim, the radio bezel, the radio itself, the gauge pod trim, the gauge pod, then open the cup holders theres a screw in them on both sides, then work your way around the steering wheel, and also be sure to remove the glove box ( the actual one on the bottom of the passenger side) then remove most those bolts from holding them down.

I took mine in an out a few times and cause I am lazy i only installed like 1/3rd the stuff to make access way easier. But it is a pain, expect to spend a lot of time and as for getting the front panel to line up. a solid thwak.
