Although considered a operation with not too short timing, disassembling the instrument panel of the 2007 Ford S Max is still an operation that can be done independently. To disassemble the panel, it is necessary to remove the lower parts of the dashboard; to do this operation we must use a plastic lever and extract all the parts without damaging the hooks as shown in the following video.

With a socket wrench, we remove the lower screw and remove the lower part of the steering wheel. We remove the side screws to remove the lower left part of the dashboard.

After removing the screws, we can also extract the upper part of the dashboard.
