Video tutorial

This video shows how to replace a worn-out dashboard, specifically for a Nissan Altima. You can find a new dashboard panel through a parts search on eBay or visit a junkyard to find a well-preserved piece.

First, disconnect the battery and remove the trim where the gear shift lever is located. Next, proceed to remove all plastic panels by unscrewing all the retaining screws.

Be careful when dealing with pieces connected to the electrical system, especially the airbag connectors. Reassembly is simply the reverse of the disassembly process.
