| Hi guys, My name is Jonathan and I'm new here. Got this ae102 corolla sedan off from my mum it's been running pretty smooth so far, now since i've got myself a part time work, i'll start to do some exterior and interior modification to it, and this is my goal.  | |

| Welcome Jonathan! That picture is your car? Or what you want to make it look like. Either way I like it! | |

| Replacing the dash is hard work, but possible if you have a new one. | |

| Welcome, if you have questions on how to take the dash out and replace it, a few of us have done it.  I like the direction you want to head with your car. Good luck | |

| All the centre consol trim, the little vents on top by the doors, the metal supports in the middle.
I might just find my manuel and take some pictures | |

| Hi guys, eh I'm not sure what did I do wrong, but after I connected the clock ( acc, llc, b and e) to the corrosponding color wires, the clock worked. but my hazard lights, indicators, head unit and the interior lights are all gone. I've checked the fuses and they're all good....
What should I check now? | |

| Hey Jonathan, Welcome to the club! I'm afraid I don't know much about it as yet, but the guys on here are legends,cc and I'm sure they'll be able to help you out, just like they have me.  It looks really nice, won't take much to achieve the look you want. Regards, Jay | |

| Nice, it works!! I was gonna say, it had to be a fuse problem!
And when you've got a chance, take a look at this page, it contains all the pics and DIYs I have from the interior, including stuff about the dashboard.

| Thanks... As I mentioned before, I want to replace the dash pad as this is what's happening to my car and it's rather annoying every time i look at it.  I've went to the link you gave me, a really interesting report, but he didn't take the dash pad out as he said it's really hard due to all the wires and harnesses and stuff.... So are there any way to take it out without getting rid of the windscreen? | |
