How to Remove the Dashboard and Replace the Illumination

Model: Chrysler 300c MK 1 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Dashboard

Do you need to remove a dashboard plastic panel? Replace the satellite navigator? Replace the clock illumination? Here’s how to do it!
First, open the ashtray drawer, insert your hand inside with your palm facing up, and use your fingertips to grasp and pull towards you the silver plastic to loosen the clips. Using the same method, pull the trim along its perimeter to release all the clips, then carefully disconnect the various connectors behind the aluminium-coloured panel before fully removing it.
Next, using a cross-head screwdriver, remove the 4 screws, 2 on each side, that hold the navigator in place. Once removed, you can extract it and disconnect the connectors before fully removing it.
The video also shows where the bulbs that illuminate the clock are located, and if you have issues, it suggests replacing them with LED illumination, which is more durable and attractive.
