All,
   I'm in the process of stripping car in prep for the new paint.
Following the manual i am at the point of removing metal vent and mesh grill on top of dash board just in front of screen, the side and corner pieces are out as is glove box and ashtray,according to manual should be six nuts holding vent in place,got the first two out any idea how the other four are accessed in particular the two in front of steering wheel.
  I've stripped door cards out but i'm stuck with the window weather strips, i don't want to damage them , any ideas how to remove?.
Thanks in advance,
       Laurence

It involves lots of blood usually, as you reach up past a selection of nice sharp edges . I usually do them with a socket held in my fingers, push down on the grill to reduce the grip on the nut.

Dash out helps as well, a lot!

Cheers
