The crashpad or just the airbag cover? Yes, it can be taken off. You just have to take the entire dash Assy off then there's like 4 or 6 bolts to take the crashpad off.

With the rest of the dash and the glovebox off, you'll see the bolts.
I'm not completely sure about the airbag cover, Djalkyd was supposed to let us know but never did. If I was you I'd just take off the bolts, get the crashpad out, then see how the airbag cover comes off. It's not worth messing with it and having it go off.

Thanks guys, Webtech does have it, i guess i just didnt know the right words to search for, thanks... o0o i am assuming the steering wheel and airbag do not really need 2 be disconnected, correct? dont think that is 1 thing i wanna play with...
Hey REDZ i read somewhere where you said that you didnt have the dash in the car for about a month, is it illegal to drive with the dash and the crash pad out of the car?

dude, disconnect the airbags and taking off the steering wheel makes it way easier. get a steering wheel puller from autozone for like 12 dollars. this will be your car soon....

yes, you can remove the airbag covver. its a ton of bolts attached to the crashpad once you get it out.
youll see where the bolts are, there is alos a little screw somewhere, and two hard-as-shit to get out bolts in the instrument cluster space that you have to loosen. they are a lot easier to get out if you have an "angling" socket or whatever those are called.
also make sure to disconnect the wiring harness.

I've got 2 tickets with it off and no issues.
