Has anyone removed a gbody dashboard recently or know where all the screws are located that need 2 be removed to take the dash off. I looked in some of the forums but are not a complete removal process. I found a buick in a local pull a part salvage yard that has a almost perfect dash board in a 85 and the windows are electrical and will not roll down and the cars are so close the doors cant open all the way also on top of that its a 100 degrees. The best part is they only what 15 dollars for it. So if any one can tell me how many screw were there at that would be a big help so ill be able to now what to do and not to be taken unecessary screws out and be there for hours in the heat thank in advance.
 
I'm not sure how many screws there are, but I can offer a suggestion for the window thing. If you have a drill battery and you can get to the motor wires in the door, you should be able to at least roll down the windows.
 
Yeah there is 3 main decent size bolts on the bottom
1 near the hood latch, 1 in the middle under the a/c, and the last is underneath the glove box.
Then there is the top screws and small bolts there is like maybe 5 of each by the windshield.
Then have to unlatch parking brake,take two bolts off of the steering wheel column and lower it then
the speedometer cable.

Also the fuse box should be unbolted and it will come right out with the dash. Be VERY carefull after all the bolts are removed when your pulling the dash out of the car. Especially with it sitting in the 100 degree sun for god knows how long as the material becomes very brittle. Other than that its a pretty straight forward process with the key being to take your time. Good luck!
