I need to remove the vertical carpeted panel beneath the steering wheel. The panel has a slot cut in it for the brake pedal arm. Per chance, is it held in place similarly to the panel on the passenger side behind which are a number of 12 volt fuses (that I can get off)? I just purchased a VMSPC and it seems like behind this panel will be the best place to mount the unit.

Tim,
That panel has a small clip at the bottom & a detent ball clip on top. Put your fingers over the top & pull toward yourself. You will hear the detent ball release. Now work it up and back toward yourself & remove. Reassemble in reverse.

Tim,

Steve did a great job of describing how to remove the panel.

I would be interested in pictures of how you chose to layout the screen and where you mounted the display if you have the time to do that.

Thanks,

Russ

Thanks rheavn, I will give it a try sometime this week. Russ, I plan on preparing a post once I get the install done. It will show what you are asking about. Likely will happen within a month although everything I do on this rig seems to take longer than I estimate.
