Default interior disassembly

How do you remove the paneling in the interior of your SC?? Specifically near the driver side area underneath the steering wheel. Also how do you remove your front seat and carpeting?

Front seat has 2 bolts on each side on front and back - and then one going through to where the center console is.

Carpet you will need to remove all the seats and it is easy from there.

Don't remember that area - I believe there are some philips head screws holding that piece in.

Taking apart the SC is very easy. Take a look around and you will see. Have a philips and a 10mm socket handy.

Check the stereo section. It shows how to dismantle an entire interior (with pics!).

Anyone that owns a tool set and works on their own car NEEDS,

Following me here? NEEDS

to get themselves the Factory Repair Manual. It tells you how to replace, remove and fix EVERTHING on the car WITH PICS. Every last nut and bolt.

Blindly ripping apart at these cars will surely break something especially the interior panels when you don't know if that final point is a bolt to remove or a clip to just yank on. Trust me, you do NOT want to crack any interior panels. They are atrociously expensive.

Buy the Manual, you will not regret it.

How much is the manual and where can i find one? Thanks in advance. I downloaded a service manual from a toyota website, but there was little information about the interior; let alone disassembly. That's why I ask.

You can get them at the dealer and they are about $100. Worth every penny.
