There should be more than just 5, also one near the hood release and the wire to remove that, as well as two bolts one on each side of the knee guard after those are off and on the right side of the glove box as well as the one inside. Oh and don't forget the HELL clips that are tiny barbed plastic plugs that get destoryed when pulled out the are up by the sensors near the glass almost impossible to pull out from under the dash so i just driller through them.

Yes you are right, there are a bunch of small things that need to happen like removing the hole center console. However the images are for the dash only and the rest are already DIY to death in this forum.

A major PITA to do, so glad I did it and not shop. To many ways to break stuff and cut corners.

You are a madman! I slid out the dash in my 240 once. Don't remember why I was getting in there but I do remember seeing more connections than I wanted to deal with. So... I slid it back in and skipped whatever I was thinking about.
