And how many hours?
For the first time?
Is it possible to do alone?
Thanks

---

I don't know how many hours? Maybe 8 hours. And yes it can be done by yourself, I have done 3 times by myself. Always work alone.

Sure a helper when it goes in or out would be helpful but by no means absolutely necessary.


I cut the glass out by myself also, it makes it much easier but not necessary.


And it is plug and play and all the colors match up to the service manual.

I just replaced my dash harness a few weeks ago in my 70 barracuda convertible. I left the dash in and the seats in. It only took a couple of hours.

And you'll be a master of yoga and the game Twister when you are done. Unless you need to get in there for other reasons, the wiring job is probably faster leaving the dash in than pulling everything out, rewiring, and then re-installing everything.

I have the dash removal order on my work laptop. When I get in tomorrow I will post it up.

Nice!!

I agree taking out the dash is the only right way to do it, imo.

I don't see how you could get it back in correctly from under the dash, although I have never done it that way.

Challenger1 I would love to see more of your nifty dash stand. Hard to tell in your picks how it is made.

You would not believe how simple it is.

It was given to me by my next door neighbor. Her late husband built it to hold wood when he using his table saw. It is nothing more than a piece of angle iron and I use vise grips to clamp it to the angle iron. It's adjustable up and down and that's about it.
