Unscrew the gear knob and unclip the gear surround.
Unscrew and remove the holder in front of the surround. Remove the bin
There are 2 screws underneath the dash where bin slides in (need a stumpy screw driver for this)
Then the woodgrain panel just unclips when you pull it. From there the whole mount for the AC and headunit can be removed by unscrewing the 6 screws that hold it in.

^^ what he said. its really simple. one of those things that you can do by learning as you go. plus you can't really screw anything up. just grap a screw driver or two and get stuck in
