ok i will show u the tools needed as well as the best i can photo step by set possible. i did not opt to take off the steering wheel or the seats which could help with the install, i did take them out of the car at the junk yard because i got this out of a b13 SE model for $35 and i got a perfect condition Air Bag Leather wrap Steering wheel for $6 which ill do a writeup later on about the install of that.
ok first thing first heres my new pretty dash.

heres my old p.o.s
if you have a nx2000 it works out great, take the t-tops off it will make things more confortable, ive got both a nx2000 and a b13 se-r so ill have to do this soon again in the other car.
the only tools youll need right now a philips and a 10 mm and if you got a door clip removal tool then thats a bonius or u can use a flat head screw driver. i choose the two different for color differences so while im working and showing you pics u can tell the different tool i use
ok in the center console area where the shift boot is at youll need to take that off, u donot have to take the shift knob off i did not and ive got a short shifter, all u do is grab the backside part of it and gentley pull it will pop out and just pull it all the way up
ok next there is a coin tray youll need to grab the back of it and pull it out and set it outside of ur car top side up
ok you now need to take the ash tray out, what u do to take this off is pull it out as far as it will go then push down the metal area, then sit it outside the car
now youll need to take off the radio bezel, this is a little more tricky and ill guide u threw as best as i can.. theres two screws at the top above the radio
ok nows the time to make a bolt and screw holder, i just had a glass i used its ur call
heres the lower screws on the lower part of the radio bezel ( 2 total ) the other one is hidden below the lighter on the LT side
then it should pop off, dont force it but give it a little tug
theres 2 clips on mine but for the sentra se-r theres 3 due to the fog lamps. theres a little button you press and then u can pull it off and dont force it u can mess this up
ok heres the two u have to take off for the lighter, the black one just pulls off, the white one has one of them little clip buttons be carefull the white clip can brake easly
( before )
( after )
now for the ac vents at the top of the radio bezel, now on the RT and LT hand side theres little tabs that hold it in place but ill show u a pic of that as well.
heres the tabs after i took it apart ( again be careful they can brake easly and there on both sides)
ok pull out the ac vents, theres a cable for it on the bottom side, youll need to disconnect it and its just like the throttle cable so its super easy to do but i forgot to take a pic ( oooppps )
ok radio bezel off now time to take screws off, this is the ac controls and theres 4 of them total, 2 of the LT and 2 on the RT, now take them off but leave the AC controls in, they will not be taken out at all.
