MAKE SURE YOU DISCONNECT THE BATTERY!!! Otherwise you could have a face full of passenger side airbag

Cool ...Thanks for Advice

outtamymind

ok yes whenever you are dealing with removing the dash always disconnect the negative terminal directly from the battery to disable the air bags.

now since there are 11 pictures for the ion dash removal, here is the link to them to my website as i do not want to have this thread take an hour to load just incase.

Any luck with the ion

awsome Thanks....Is there any way that u can compare the ions clutch system vs the cobalts

outtamymind

that would take me a little while to do a side by side comparison if they have the diagrams for them and i would have to look them up. i might be able to do it another day but im just about to go and relax before i got to bed. if you send me a pm reminding me in a day or so then i should be able to do it.

Cool...No problem,ill hit u up a reminder in a couple of days....I belive its just one picture because I Saw it at the dealar and it seemed to be a complete diagram of the clutch pedal,trowoutbearing ,tranny etc, But im unsure if a cobalt part will fit my ion, sooooo this is why im curious....

Synner

hey outa thats amazing thats exactly what i was looking for, ive got a lower end kenwood that i didnt install b/e the place i went to told me there was a lot i had to do to remove the dash to get the stock headunit out...im not sure if they were bs'ing me or not, do you know? also do you have a book or program that lets you get to all these specs that you can replicate or order because i'd be more than willing to pay for soemthin like that since im plannin on doing a few different things myself. any help and imput on the headunit and anything else is more than appreciated

they lied.. to get the stereo out its extremly easy and takes maybe 10 mins at most... u do not need to remove the dash

Synner

SOB haha thats what i get for being lazy. thanks tho, do you know where the screws are? its too late/ cold for me to go look....

RollermanDan

Took take the head unit off, pop the piece that is above the glove box, then the to left of the head unit, the main cover off of the head unit piece and there will be 4 screws holding it in. Use a 10mm socket and there you go.

Synner

thanks man

outtamymind

no synner its a gm website that gm employee's get and to get the stock head unit out you just need to take the trim around the dash off not the entire dash.
