Make sure there's no loose screws in the ashtray before you pull the whole dash out.

I think it's called the "plenum" and if you have rust there you need to take the front gaurds off as well and check behind them for holes

and if you already have it out why the fuck would you need a manual, it just goes back in the reverse of how it comes out..........
