Absolutely love the use of multiple cameras for different angles. More people should take after you on that one. Also, really like how informative you are and the process you took in the video. Right on man! Keep it up!
You could be a studio producer cameraman at least... Additional cameras shrimitive difference every aspect of your video is meticulously professionally done I'm a good mechanic but sometimes when you've not performed a project it can go very slow.. Thanks for showing me all of the necessaries to remove dash. You're a pro Thanks for your help Peters
My grandad willed me my JK. I plan to keep it forever like my 68C10. I can see I have 2 options. Stock up on new in the box plastic dash board panels, or rip out all the old cracking plastic and fabricate a metal front dash with aftermarket steering column one day. I sure miss the old steel dashes.
Thank you so much for this video. I need to check on two bare wires that I just found leading to some kind of a box behind that panel below the steering wheel. Was afraid to pull with as much force as you did. so your video is helpful for me in 2020.
Straightforward instructions best video I've ever seen explaining removal of Dash and instrument cluster.. Thanks for all your efforts the extra lighting the cameras.. Professional description.. Thank You..
Great video ! My radio goes without sound randomly fir weeks.. i think its the wires to the ampplifier.. have you ever replaced, your amplifier, thank you!
Great video. Of course I dropped the first 7mm bolt and can't find it for the life of me. Happen to know the size or part no, or where I can source it easily?
I know I am way late to the party, but .... I have a 2013 JKUS that has the tombstone speakers that I can't stand. I see you have the flat versions. Can you tell me if that from piece of the dash is interchangeable with other years that have the flat already. Also, is the front part of the dash fairly easy to remove?
I'm hearing a noise when I hit a rough bump. It's driving me nuts. A chaffing noise . It's ok on the hwy. But as soon as I hit a bumpy road, it starts to chafe. Like a loose screw. I was hoping to get under the dash to see what it was . Now I know how to expose the internal workings
Great video, I dont think there is really any difference for the 2010 JK, right? Also another question, there is a metal plate where you put your amplifier (original plate), is that necessary to have something bolted between those two vertical metal posts? I am planning on mounting light switches in the plastic cover below the steer wheel and a couple relays so the wiring will not allow the metal plate to remain in place. Do you think this is alright? Thanks.
My 73 year old mother dropped her keys between windshield & dashboard. If i remove dashboard as oer your video, do you think i will be able to retrieve them?Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks for the great video!
If you remove the panels shown in the video it should give you access to just about anywhere you need. Some spots may be tight, but I think you would be able to retrieve those keys by doing this. Thanks for watching!
Dude thank you so much! Question: I'm pretty much a newb to this kind of jeep work.. I'm going to be adding some window/hood lights and the only thing I need to access would be the stock OEM switch panel (2015 JK), do I have to take all this stuff off to access it? Or can I use a few tools and just pop it out? Thanks!
This is exactly what I was looking to do. Thanks for multiple angles. Quick question. Why wouldn't you recommend the Tuffy glove box? I was looking at one and would love to hear your reasons. Thanks!
There are quite a few reasons I would not recommend the TUFFY glove box, have you watched my video on it? It's an install video, but I think I give some info on it at the end. Thanks for watching!
Excellent video! Question, I am going to be pulling my dash panels to look for a noise back there. Any ideas of what could be rattling or what to look for? Thanks!
Thanks for the video. Looks perfect. Question: Are you able to see any of the steering components once the dash is removed? I have a clunking sound that's coming from behind the instrument cluster that I want to check out.
I'm honestly not sure, I didn't look, but if the sound is coming from back there you should be able to locate it with all these panels removed. Thanks for watching!
I need to get into the side panel of my dashboard. Does that crescent shaped side panel pop out or do I have to remove the entire dashboard like you did? The reason I ask is that I have a switch installed to the left side of my steering wheel in the dash.that switch has gone bad and the only way I can get to it is by taking off either that small panel or the whole dash. The switch won't pop out
Here are a few different kits - (5pc Kit) - amzn.to/2F7vrnx (12pc Kit) - amzn.to/2KrTnGD (23pc Kit) - amzn.to/2KS7u7n You can find all of these and more tools I use in my Amazon storefront in the tools section - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv Thanks for watching!
I believe the lights are integrated LED's. I don't think they can be changed, at least not easily. I'm not 100% sure of this, you may try asking around in some of the Jeep forums. Sorry I couldn't give you a complete answer, but thanks for watching!
Hi thanks for the video ,, I have a question ,, suppose I need to get to the Evaporator , then I would need to do what you did in this video and go further by removing more parts ,, correct ? do I need to remove the steering wheel completely or can It just be dropped down to the floor and out of the way ,, which there was a video on getting to the HVAC and replacing the Evaporator ..forgot to mention I have a 2013 Wrangler
Sure! I've got a whole series of videos on a Liberty, did you have something specific in mind? Thanks for watching and if you haven't already, don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos! Thanks again!
Do you know the parts number to the bash clips? I’m guessing the ones you said that pop off. I’m looking to buy some new ones for around the radio area.
My vent selector knob backlight flickers on and off. Does that sound like one of the connectors is not fully seated or a bad vent knob assembly unit entirely? Thanks!
With it being just the vent knob and not the others, I'm guessing the light for that knob is going out. I have no clue if they can be repaired or if the whole unit has to be replaced. I would check the connections like you said though, hope you get away with a simple bad connection. Thanks for watching!
It's from DayStar, I got it on Amazon. I'm not sure if they still sell it though. If you find one, I would definitely recommend it! Thanks for watching!
That is the DayStar lower dash switch panel. There are 2 different ones, one for 2007-2010 - goo.gl/hxaAkr and one for 2011-2018 - goo.gl/BXaUc3 They can both be found in my Amazon Storefront - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv They are listed under Switches and Electrical. Thanks for watching!
The holster is from a company called Zero Tolerance. I made a video on it, but had to take it down because of some new "rules" at the time. The shift knobs are from Drake Off-Road. I think the shifters are in my Amazon storefront in the Jeep Wrangler Parts section - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv Thanks for watching!
a bic lighter was lost on my dash.fell into the duct "defrost vent " i think. can i acess it like that ? its messing with my defrost on the driver side lower corner of the windshield
Removing the speaker requires a few more steps. They can be a little tricky to get out. Unfortunately I don't have a video on that. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but thanks for watching!
Question: I'm looking at adding a light pod/bar switch to the empty switch spots where the Electronic Sway Bar Disconnect and Locker buttons would be on a Rubicon. They are located above the left speaker. Any tips or tricks to get those out? Would you still need to take apart the dash to get to that area?
I can't say for sure as I do not have a Rubicon so I think my panels are just a little different on that side. I can say that if you pop the lower knee plate trim panel off (under steering wheel) there should be a few 7mm bolts behind there, those may help you get your switch/button panel out.
@@RockyXTV Your video helped a lot. I was able to get in to the exact area I wanted to: the switch bay under the AC controls. However, I found that those are not independent switch locations.. there's a housing that holds all those switches together and is harnessed in. So I wasn't able to get the switch installed there. So I cut a whole where the mesh speaker cover is on the left side. Easy cuts (since there's already tiny holes) and the switch looks good there.
Thanks for the great video and instructions!! I had to replace my remote control mirror switch this weekend. Did not take as long as I had expected it to, you instructions were great. Thanks!!
I don't recall if I ever removed that side. Unfortunately I no longer have a Wrangler, so I can't experiment for you. I'm really sorry I couldn't be of any help.
Im looking for a place under my dash to put the remote box for my CB radio. How do I remove the passenger side dash to see if theres room under there ?
I don't think I've removed that section, at least not that I remember. As far as room over there, it would be limited as you have the air bag, glove box, heater box and a few other odds and ends. Sorry I couldn't be of an help, thanks for watching though!
Would like to note a 2009 JK does not have this style, there is no center switch to pull out and the drivers side and the radio console are separate, the title to his should be corrected to show the correct years.
Maybe soon, the plan was to have a JL this year, but I decided to wait until the truck comes out. I also have a rule about buying the first model year of a vehicle, I don't buy them. I always wait and let others find out what the bugs are and see if they get fixed. If that makes any sense, thanks for watching!

Awesome video. Your narrative, use of multiple camera angles and the sound quality is top notch. Great job and thank you for simplifying it!

You're a pro Thanks for your help Peters
Thanks for the excellent instructions on how to remove the dash panels.
Thank you for watching!
I often wondered how to remove this to get to the dead switches, Rocky thanx for this straight to the point video!
Thank you for watching, glad this could help!
Don’t forget to mention how to undo the clip on the window controls… broke mine when I thought I had undone it…… Thanks for the video.

Darlin I love you!! Lol
Do you know how many videos I've had to go thru just to see someone doing what I needed?! Lol
Thank you!!
Awesome we’ll put together video!!! Now I can make a mess of my Jeep.😂 Thanks again great job.
Thank you for watching! I hope you don't mess it up too bad 😆
Great video ! My radio goes without sound randomly fir weeks.. i think its the wires to the ampplifier.. have you ever replaced, your amplifier, thank you!
Straight to the point with no BS. Good video it helped me. Got a video from the passenger side dash removal ? Thanks
Perfect! Just what I was looking for. Thanks for a direct and to-the-point tutorial!
This was a top notch video. Clear and concise. Thanks much for the time and effort!
Thank you very much for taking the time to comment!
Thanks for watching!
Great little video I really like that you describe things well and kept it short
Thanks! I'm glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!
That is not the center dash for a 2007-2011 Jeep JK. You need to modify your title.
Great video! Super helpful and not a lot of fluff. Thanks!
Great video. Of course I dropped the first 7mm bolt and can't find it for the life of me. Happen to know the size or part no, or where I can source it easily?
You may have to check ebay or Amazon. I've lost a few of these myself. I've also never gotten around to finding replacements 😆
Thank you for watching!
Great informational video Rocky. My wife actually talked about trading in her Charger for a jeep.
Thanks Chad! Tell her my wife and I think she should go for the Jeep!
Will do!
Agree with GPLOCK. Good to the point video. Good sound, lighting and camera angles. Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
I know I am way late to the party, but .... I have a 2013 JKUS that has the tombstone speakers that I can't stand. I see you have the flat versions. Can you tell me if that from piece of the dash is interchangeable with other years that have the flat already. Also, is the front part of the dash fairly easy to remove?
What kind of phone mount is that? By the way this helped me immensely !!!
thanks much, very detailed video and just what I needed to remove without damage or stess.......job well done
Glad the video was helpful. Thank you for watching!
I'm hearing a noise when I hit a rough bump. It's driving me nuts. A chaffing noise . It's ok on the hwy. But as soon as I hit a bumpy road, it starts to chafe. Like a loose screw. I was hoping to get under the dash to see what it was . Now I know how to expose the internal workings
This was extremely helpful!!!✌️

Clear and no bs
Sweet! I am looking for. Grommet through the firewall on the driver side. Did you do an A piller removal?
Where did the switch panel that replaced the one with the net under the A/C controls come from?
It's from a company called Daystar. You can find them on Amazon by searching for Daystar Jeep Switch Panel.
I’ve been trying to figure this out forever now so I can paint it. Thanks so much! Made it super easy and informative!
Very VERY nice video.. perfect man
Dude thank you so much! Question: I'm pretty much a newb to this kind of jeep work..

Honestly there could be who knows what rattling around back there... It is a Jeep after all LOL! Thanks for watching!
Can you tell me what amp is hidden in there? That is such a good idea that I might have to steal
Good job, It will be really easer to do this for me...

Thank you very much!
just lost my cart in my fiends jeep dashboard, thanks for the hacks
Thanks for watching!
How to you get behind the dash on the passenger side??
Just came across your video - straight and to the point! Question: what is the blue tool you used to pry out the window switches?
Here are a few different kits - (5pc Kit) - amzn.to/2F7vrnx (12pc Kit) - amzn.to/2KrTnGD (23pc Kit) - amzn.to/2KS7u7n You can find all of these and more tools I use in my Amazon storefront in the tools section - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv Thanks for watching!
It would have been nice if you would have shown us a view of the actual piece to we can see where all the bold points were in a single view
Worked like a champ for me today replacing the dash portion itself. Thanks!
Awesome video thank you. Can you manually select heat when you take it apart ? Just wondering because it might take awhile before I can get the part .
I don't believe so. I think once you unplug the heater control panel it basically shuts your heat and A/C off completely.
Do you know if I’m able to change the color of my dash lights by removing the dash? And what kind of bulbs do I need if possible?
I believe the lights are integrated LED's. I don't think they can be changed, at least not easily. I'm not 100% sure of this, you may try asking around in some of the Jeep forums. Sorry I couldn't give you a complete answer, but thanks for watching!
How exactly does one watch in reverse is this possible?
Hi thanks for the video ,, I have a question ,, suppose I need to get to the Evaporator , then I would need to do what you did in this video and go further by removing more parts ,, correct ? do I need to remove the steering wheel completely or can It just be dropped down to the floor and out of the way ,, which there was a video on getting to the HVAC and replacing the Evaporator ..forgot to mention I have a 2013 Wrangler
I'm not 100% sure as I've yet to have to go that far. I'll look into it though. Sorry I couldn't be of any help, but thanks for watching!
Great video; could you make other video for Jeep Liberty?
Sure! I've got a whole series of videos on a Liberty, did you have something specific in mind? Thanks for watching and if you haven't already, don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos! Thanks again!

Thank you for watching!
Do you know the parts number to the bash clips? I’m guessing the ones you said that pop off. I’m looking to buy some new ones for around the radio area.
I'm not exactly sure what the part # is, but I can check. Thanks for watching!

It's from DayStar, I got it on Amazon. I'm not sure if they still sell it though. If you find one, I would definitely recommend it! Thanks for watching!
any concerns with 2014 SRS / air bag switches or sensors when removing center console components?
Thanks for the video.
Now how you you remove the rest of the dash
What brand is that switch panel that replaced the netting at the bottom of the dash? Thank you.
That is the DayStar lower dash switch panel. There are 2 different ones, one for 2007-2010 - goo.gl/hxaAkr and one for 2011-2018 - goo.gl/BXaUc3 They can both be found in my Amazon Storefront - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv They are listed under Switches and Electrical. Thanks for watching!
ok first of all, thank you for this video... second, can you tell me about your gun holster and the gear shifts please???
The holster is from a company called Zero Tolerance. I made a video on it, but had to take it down because of some new "rules" at the time. The shift knobs are from Drake Off-Road. I think the shifters are in my Amazon storefront in the Jeep Wrangler Parts section - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv Thanks for watching!
Condition Zero is the holster brand, sorry about that.
What if you want to take out the passenger side dash panel how do you do that?
That is a little more of a process as you have the airbag to deal with over there. Unfortunately I don't have a video on that side.
a bic lighter was lost on my dash.fell into the duct "defrost vent " i think. can i acess it like that ?
its messing with my defrost on the driver side lower corner of the windshield
same thing happened to me i’ve been trying to get it out
After removing that dash panel does the left speaker panel come off as well?
Removing the speaker requires a few more steps. They can be a little tricky to get out. Unfortunately I don't have a video on that. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but thanks for watching!

How to remove the other part with airbag passenger I stock in that part I'm a fried I could blow the airbag plz advise
I don't recall if I ever removed that side. Unfortunately I no longer have a Wrangler, so I can't experiment for you. I'm really sorry I couldn't be of any help.
@@RockyXTV thanks man
Im looking for a place under my dash to put the remote box for my CB radio. How do I remove the passenger side dash to see if theres room under there ?
I don't think I've removed that section, at least not that I remember. As far as room over there, it would be limited as you have the air bag, glove box, heater box and a few other odds and ends. Sorry I couldn't be of an help, thanks for watching though!
I put mine behind the glove box.
Just sub'd. thanks for the video and time it takes to edit.
Thanks for the Sub! Thanks for watching!
Great video dude
Thanks for checking it out!
Would like to note a 2009 JK does not have this style, there is no center switch to pull out and the drivers side and the radio console are separate, the title to his should be corrected to show the correct years.
How would I remove the other side of the panel?
As in the passenger side where the air bag is? I've never removed that side.
Thank you!!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
thank you brother!
Thank you for watching!
Im looking for your amblyfire what kind brand ? Thanx.
The amp is a Soundstream amp. I show a little more of it in this video - ua-cam.com/video/LSEnjf_Fbvg/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!
This is the same for a right hand drive
And more success 🙌 🙏 👌 to you bro
I have not seen a single video of how to remove that inner structure.
This is great! I sure wish someone would do this for the JL too!
Maybe soon, the plan was to have a JL this year, but I decided to wait until the truck comes out. I also have a rule about buying the first model year of a vehicle, I don't buy them. I always wait and let others find out what the bugs are and see if they get fixed. If that makes any sense, thanks for watching!
Thanks sir!!!🙏
How do you take off the piece on top of the glove box?
Above the glove box is the air bag I believe, I haven't taken that apart. Sorry I couldn't be of much help with that.
Rocky X TV No problem, thank you!
Perfect
Thank you for watching!
Thanks
Nice work
Wow... Ty...
