Like an idiot I dropped a 10mm bolt into the center panel while trying to remove the radio. Does anybody know of instructions to remove the center panel?


thanks in advance for any help

 

After nearly a day I finally found a factory service manual on line. This disassembly became pretty easy once the instructions were available. Remove passenger side scuff plate, the covers on either side of the center pillar, the glove box, the plate that covers the stuff behind the glove box. You have to drop the driver side knee airbag assembly but not remove. Once all of this is removed you take out the screws as shown and disengage the two clips at the top and it comes right out.

I still didn't find the bolt

 

After loosing a bolt in the same manner, I spent 15 minutes fishing around with an extendable magnetic retrieval tool and then 5 minutes trying to determine how much work it would be to remove the centre panel. Decided in the end to just go buy a new bolt at the Home Depot.
