How To... Remove the dash on an Alfa SZ/RZ
| Pull out plastic plugs (x1 each side) holding side carpet panels, in foot well, to centre console and remove. Unscrew the off side air vent panel, then the drivers right hand instrument panel, the rev and speedo counter and lastly the near side air vent. |
| Remove the ashtray, gear stick surround and then unscrew the associated switch panel. Pull out door seals, a-pillar trim and unscrew the side panel on both door frames. |
| Unscrew x3 screws (or x2 depending on how Mr. Zagato was feeling that day) on centre console and slide backwards. |
| Loosen off dash retaining bolts, x2 at each end, unscrew steering column shroud and loosen steering column adjustment pin. |
| Unscrew fuse box cover and remove air vent duct pipe work, either side (pulls apart). Unscrew fuse box and unplug wiring loom on passenger side (note there's a six pin female connector which lays redundant). Cut the cable ties which secure the loom to hooks, underneath the dashboard |
| Remove the dash retaining bolts (each end) then lift it slightly in order to remove steering column adjustment pin from the passenger side. |
| The dash should then be ready to pull out. |
