How to disassemble the dashboard of the BMW 7 Series.

Model: BMW Serie 7 MK 3, E38 - Years 1994-2001
Part: Dashboard

Today, we will be looking at the main instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the dashboard of the BMW 7 Series. Firstly, we climb aboard the vehicle and begin to disassemble and remove the glove compartment by unscrewing the screws and unhooking it from the sides; we remove the central cover of the dashboard, followed by disassembling the radio and air conditioning controls (unscrewing the screws and disconnecting all electrical wiring). At this point, we remove the passenger airbag cover by unscrewing the airbag screws located underneath it; we then disassemble the instrument panel and subsequently the entire dashboard!
