removal of the dash is easy really, only reason it took me so long was because id re-run alot of wires behind the dash out the way, damn me and my cable tie anticks!

Me too, and I might just be doing that. But I'd cut the spare wheel well out and make it totally immaculate.

You need a dash in there really. They don't weigh anything at all to be honest so there is no point leaving it out.
