Dash removal for stereo install
Installing on a 2001 GMC Jimmy, the only screws I see are (2) below the steering wheel. Are these all I have to unscrew before 'popping' the dash bezel off?

Remove the 4screws holding the lower left I/p extension on and it will drop slightly (the left closeout panel and park brake release handle will still be attatched to it. Once it is lowered you will see the 2 screws that hold the I/P trim plate on remove those and then there is one more in the middle of the cluster trim directly above the steering column. Then just pull outward and release the clips all the way around and disconnect the switches (rear wiper and passenger air bag).

dont forget to disconnect the headlight switch and the 4x4 switch (if equipped) and watch out for the emergency flasher button... they are expensive...lol after that theres just 2 screws that hold in the stock stereo... unscrew, remove, unplug and you are done... have fun!!!
oh yeah... it will be alot easier if you turn the key on and pull the shifter down to first if you have column shifter..... dont forget to unhook the negative battery cable....... itll make the process a bit safer...lol

The headlight switch is the annoying one to do... The rest are peanuts!
