The title is slightly misleading. I came here looking for how to remove the entire dash, but you're only showing removing the dashboard cover. You do an outstanding job of describing and showing what this takes, but the video doesn't include removing the dashboard. Great job with the video.
I watch many of these informational videos to learn how to repair items on my vehicles myself. In my opinion this the best one I have ever watched. No annoying music in the background ( yes I heard your radio) just honest straightforward common sense information by a real person who has been there,.. done that. Thank you, I found this 2 years after you posted this and it helped me so much. By the way, just before the 3 minute mark the cow in the background is priceless. again, great job!
Finally a nicely done video! Seems like most guys who make videos like this couldn't explain their way out of a wet paper bag. Very nicely done and explained, step by step! Thanks!
Like the gentleman below, I was in a similar situation - cracked dashboard from previous owner and freakin' out about diving into the dash.... Thank you thank you thank you - you're calm voice and perfect sequence of steps enabled me to deal with it. Thank you tons for the vid.
Excellent instructions! Just bought an '00 2500 Suburban and the dash was making that rattling noise all the way home. Glad the fix is simple. I'll be knocking that out tomorrow. Thanks!
Fine presentation, you talked me through something I was hesitant about. I am now moving on to replace the fresh air door actuator. Good work: clear, concise, no foolish music perfect pace.
Got the same problem with my 1995. I’ve had it since it was new. Today it’s got 475,000 miles on same 5.7 engine with zero oil leaks and no excessive oil usage. The leather seats are toast because of normal wear due to the high mileage and age. The dash has been shaking, rattling as I’m rolling on a daily basis. For now I’ll keep it as is because it’s not bothering me but I’m glad to have viewed your informative video on your slightly redesigned year model. Maybe in the future I’ll do a lower cost restoration and attend to the dashboard. Thanks for your video and your discussion about an icon of a vehicle because more people can realize how much it boosted, even began today’s SUV craze.
this was a really methodical and straightforward video. thank you! it was very easy to follow your work. I've been suffering from the same "rattling/squeaking" noise and its driving me insane. I look forward to tackling this project today.
Great job! No doubt the most common response you've probably gotten is that you are direct and to the point. Too many videos are ruined by unnecessary chatter. Video is just the right length for my attention span. I'm probably looking at replacing my evaporator core. I think I might try it myself after watching your video.
I was impressed! I was going to pay someone because of the unknown but this job looks pretty easy. RUclips has saved me so much money with all the do it yourself videos! That’s bruh!
Well done. I hate taking interior trim apart without knowing how it is attached - seems like I always guess wrong and end up breaking a few fasteners off! Need to do some wiring and cleaning and it'll be a whole lot easier with this cover out of the way. Plus, now I can repaint the dash to cover some scratches. Thanks! Good video.
You did a fantastic job on this video! I didn't need to remove all of my dash, just the front cluster trim so that I could get to the panels above the ashtray to install an aftermarket USB/AUX port for my stereo's rear connections. Thank you for the instructional expertise you put into this.
The best darn video. No kerning around just getting to the and telling us what size screws you are working with and how and where to find the release clips
Excellent video work... i need to find a new dash for my old 2001 silverado,since mine is broken everywhere and complete junk... i will watch this again before i go to my junkyard...This job could have been a real pain for sure without a good instructional video...back in the day i used to have to figure out jobs like this on my own and you always end up snapping or breaking something... thanks for this...
Thanks for the video on how to remove the dash cover dude. Just came back from the beach to find that a 6" x 6' branch that decided to test the strength of my windshield and dash, windshield and dash lost! It left a 6" hole through windshield and through top of my dash. Also, my dash started squeaking last year but all I did was push some black styrofoam in each corner. Dash hasn't squeaked since! Again, thanks for the great how-to sir👍
The video was very informative and you made it interesting to watch. The best part is when you said that we could our finger nails to pull off the cover, lol. My Dash Board is cracked and this has inspired me to replace it. Keep them coming.
I have watched several times was able to change out a few dashes on my own. This is the best video i have seen so far for the job. Only correction I would add is its only 2000 (new body) 2007. The old body trucks are night to remove dash
Excellent Video GR! My 2001 Silverado dash has begun to disintegrate Your video took the mystery out of how to go about replacing the dashboard or IP top. Retired from GM 19 years ago and installed IP's but but didn't build them. So now I need to find a deal on the replacement part. Thank for your video!
Great instructional video it helped me a lot. Thank You! My dialogue sensor had fallen out of the dash cover and I tried every other way I could think of to get it back up. I knew I had to take the dash cover off and I had never done it and this was easy to follow and very to the point.
Thanks a million! I've been driving with a carpet cover over my dash for years... now it's time for a new dash cover and panel. You've probably save me a thousand bucks.
Wow! That looked easy to do. Thanks man. I’m going through my Tahoe and removing all the shit that doesn’t have to be there. All the ducting for the front portion of the floor is gone. I removed the seats and replaced them with manual buckets. The air back sensor is gone now and the floor is now clean. I have standard lap belts now. That shoulder harness just got in the way. On Star is on its way out as well. I’m going to change out the stereo too. God, the ceiling has way too many vent openings for the air conditioner. The ports in the front of the dash are good enough. I’m leaning down my interior. The electric panel on the door is constantly rattling loose. Every time I close the door it pops out of alignment. I’ll look for some door panels in better shape. This body style is the coolest I think. I’m switching over to LED lights inside and out. I’ve got a ways to go. My work is definitely cut out for me.
awesome video thank you i just bought a 2003 chevy from this guy and suprise when i turned on defrost after i bought it the worst urine smell came out of vent mouse made a nest in defrost vent very easy to take apart appreciate it Mark i was able to get nest out and working on smell now 😄👍👍
Thank you, I have a 2007 and I had that same rattle at the same point on the drivers side from day one but I thought it was something in the steering column. I haven't taken it apart yet but I'm sure you hit the nail on the head. 14 years later it is worse and I finally started to think "dash". Wow, thank you.
Thanks for making this video! I need to replace one of the A/C actuators in my ‘03 Sierra and this is the best step by step video! I’ve had the same dash rattle for awhile and I’ll be fixing that as well. Thanks! You saved me at least $400.
awesome video!!!! I really needed this in the worst way!!! You were easy to understand and really made this look easy!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!! I have two major cracks, splitting my dash in thirds! Now I can fix mine. You rock!!!!
I just bought 99 gmc suburban c1500 slt and it seems it never seems to pull up my burban but I see apt others that are mostly alike so does help. I watched your video similar dash but it’s really same thank u for video it was fantastic and great your instructions was and they way u filmed saw everything n all the bolts screws great job man. I have A lot of work n need to find more videos I’m basically fixing it up it a big project I big car show guy so wanna fix her up lower it paint n all but I have a lot to do inside thank u to have great video others I watched sucked or shakey
Perfect video showing how to pull the dash out of my 2005 GMC Yukon so I could replace the ambient light sensor which was not allowing my daytime running lights to activate instead of my headlights. Luckily my dash was only secured by clips which slip out towards the passenger compartment so I did not have to worry about breaking them off.
Thanks for sharing this. I've had the dash out before but it's been a few years ago and this was a good video to show the details. I'm going to try replacing the remote entry receiver and it is right in the middle above the radio. Problem is the sun cooks all the plastic and it gets brittle and chalky. The remote entry receiver is really bad about the ears breaking off so I will have to use zip ties or something to hold one on. The replacement I bought off of Ebay is like a piece of chalk. Hoping the actual circuit board and components are still good. If I remember correctly the parts that are broken on your dash are broken on mine also. I haven't had the rattle, but I will now know away to fix it if I'm in there. Thanks again!
Great Video Man!! Thanks a lot! Helped with changing out the air inlet/re circulation actuator. Didn't have to remove the passenger air bag. Saved a whole lot of time and unnecessary hassle! Thanks again!
Great detailed instructional vidio, thanks for taking the necessary time to go over the "how to's" step by step, wish others that put out "how to" vidios would do the same. Thank you
Thanks for the concise and easy to follow instructions. I thought I was going to have a tough time removing the dash but your video made it so easy. Thanks.
Thank you. This gives me the courage to remove my dash pad. I have to replace that light sensor. There's another video showing a guy replacing the sensor through the stereo deck opening. I tried that but my hands and arms are too big so i think I'm going to do what you just did in the video.
I don't know what you fixed but it sounded good to me. Also the engine has that unmistakable Chevy rumble. Good job on the video and taking the time to explain the steps.
Dame man it freaks me out to replace my dash , but mine is cracked , I will try my best to replce it , my mom got this truck for me before she past away , and it means a lot to me , I just hope i dont break anything , thank you for the video ,
Excellent video. It is easier and safer to remove the vents by dropping the glove compartment past the right-side retaining clip and reaching up and pulling.
What a fantastic video, very thoroughly described and photographed. I've got one that;s more in pieces than intact. The bonus will be the ability to fix my antenna connection...great job!
Great job great step by step view of exactly what to do unlike some videos where they say do something but don't actually show in real-time thx dude..👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Thank you. The dash on my 2000 Sierra is cracked from the sun, and I’ve been wanting to replace it for years but I thought it would be much more involved. This looks like even I could do it!
Its got the rattle, and a wavey thing going on by the windshield. And the windshield guys did a number on it so I figured Im going to need to wrap it, paint it. Wish black pleather would cover it like what I want to do with my headliner.
Excellent video need to do my ac blend door actuator on my 04 escalade and this will make it much easier. I just wanted to note when removing the dash trim bezel the steering wheel needs to be tilted down all the way in order to remove it on an Escalade.
Thank you I'm putting in a new stereo and also for future reference I'm gonna replace the dash. This video is informative and very well edited. Keep up the great work. ☺️
Might as well change your heater core and evap core while you got it down!...dont make the same bone headed EXPENSIVE mistake i made i changed the ENTIRE A/C system from the condensor to the rear heater core and evap core including expansion valves but did NOT change the front evap.core and as soon as that pressure from that NEW comp hit it!...IT BURST and now i have to do it all over again the evap and heater cores are stupid cheap on ebay trust me its worth it!...
GREAT video! Thank you for taking the time to get good camera angles and clean footage unlike most! Think you could make a video about how to replace the lights in the dash (for the gauges, etc)
Wow, thank you very much for the video. This is NOT that bad. Another feather in GMs cap. There are some really NOT so great things about this truck/engine/etc. but then there are some REALLY great things about it (with regards to maintenance/repair)
Oh this is so great!! I should be able to remove mine and pull my bracelet out, it slipped down inside the dash where the VIN number is.. I'm going out right now to try it.
Great job man my dash has sun heat damage now I know what to do thanks . I noticed you got some led lights out on climate control me too always something. Nice video
I hot glued my clips back onto the board 5 years ago. Ive had the board out a few times and those clips are strong as nails on there and board goes in and out no problem. I broke all 6 of mine taking it out the first time but I think at least 2 were already broke from board buzzing. Had to pull back out twice more to change sensor and motor for recirc air door under defroster(15 minute job!).
This was an informative film. The dashboard on my 2000 Silverado is in terrible shape being cracked and all, and a large triangular piece broken out on the area just to the right of the steering wheel in the middle of the dash. I would like to try and restore it with some proper plastic welding and a matched respray. I do not mind it being laborious if I can get a better result than a quick-fix with a dashboard cover.
Good video ... thanks. Left me wondering about one thing though ... seems pretty likely that you broke one or more of the tabs on the underside/front (closest to windshield) of the dash top by yanking it straight out after removing the five anchor screws (that was the "pop" we heard), rather than lifting the back edge (furthest from windshield) just enough to get an arm in there and use a flashlight/pry tool to carefully lift the tabs out of the metal retaining clips they're secured in. If they're already broken, so be it I guess, but I'd sure rather save the original tabs, if I can, than break 'em all off and have to replace the tabs with double stick foam tape ...
@@GRmotors … right, thanks … good "bush fix" for your rattles then. What's the actual year of the truck shown in the video? I saw another video on removal of the entire dash (heater core replacement) and that model had slide-in clips instead of the tab/retainer connectors shown in your video. I'm wondering what's actually under the dash cover in this location on mine: 2001 Suburban 1500.
@@GRmotors ... thank you again, and after looking at a few more videos on removal of the dash cover, now I think I finally "get" what was confusing me about what I was seeing in your video ... you DID pull the dash cover out "correctly" (straight back) after removing all the screws, but it looks like a mechanic or prior owner of your vehicle didn't do it correctly during some earlier repair attempt, and broke off all the tabs/connectors that are supposed to remain in place on the underside (windshield end) when the cover is removed. So, what you ended up applying your double-stick tape to were the top surfaces of the slide connectors that previously got broken off. Glad I figured it out before attempting removal of this part on my truck!
Nice! Good job!
+Chaos Garage Thank you!! You also have nice work! Been watching your videos
Awesome, I appreciate that a bunch! I'll stay tuned to yours as well. I am checking some of the other ones out now.
+Chaos Garage Same to you!
Do you know if a 2500HD truck dash would bolt into a 2004 Suburban?
+Matt Read I honestly don't know for sure. But of I had to take a guess I would say it should

Could be the brake pedal assembly plastic thing. Hold your brake pedal to the side with your feet when driving and see if the noise stops.
Excellent description and video. Thanks. I hope to find a video this comprehensive when I try to eliminate the body squeaks in my Silverado.
Bob Wucher did it work? I need to do the same to my Sierra.
The most helpful video that auctally shows how you do it and everything 😂👍🏻

GREAT video! Thank you for taking the time to get good camera angles and clean footage unlike most! Think you could make a video about how to replace the lights in the dash (for the gauges, etc)
Wow, thank you very much for the video. This is NOT that bad. Another feather in GMs cap. There are some really NOT so great things about this truck/engine/etc. but then there are some REALLY great things about it (with regards to maintenance/repair)
Loved the video, very articulate with detailed and easy to follow instructions, well done Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Oh this is so great!! I should be able to remove mine and pull my bracelet out, it slipped down inside the dash where the VIN number is.. I'm going out right now to try it.
Great detailed video, I'm bout to take all the interior out so I can paint it... thankx
Very nice! Never had to do this on my 2004 suburban but now I know how to. Thanks so much for taking the time to document it
Exactly what my 2000 GMC is doing! Great Vid!!
Thank you very much for posting this! I now know how to repair my dash on my 1997 GMC
Steve Carlson you can use fiberglass and fiberglass resin it’s way cheaper and easier
Great job man my dash has sun heat damage now I know what to do thanks . I noticed you got some led lights out on climate control me too always something. Nice video
Well done vid.... Just what I needed.
Have to get to my AC Actuator from the top of my 05 Avalanche.
Thanks !!!
No problem!
It sure is great what we can learn from RUclips videos. Thank you for posting.

I hot glued my clips back onto the board 5 years ago. Ive had the board out a few times and those clips are strong as nails on there and board goes in and out no problem. I broke all 6 of mine taking it out the first time but I think at least 2 were already broke from board buzzing. Had to pull back out twice more to change sensor and motor for recirc air door under defroster(15 minute job!).
RUclips university!!!!! Thanks for the step by step tutorial.
Hey bro were did u purchase the dash i got the same problem 2003 chevy suburban
Man I was never able to find one, I just had to repair my broken one
This was an informative film. The dashboard on my 2000 Silverado is in terrible shape being cracked and all, and a large triangular piece broken out on the area just to the right of the steering wheel in the middle of the dash. I would like to try and restore it with some proper plastic welding and a matched respray. I do not mind it being laborious if I can get a better result than a quick-fix with a dashboard cover.
Thanks for sharing
Excellent video!..Good step by step instructions..Camera work etc.Awsome!!!
+Juan Amador Thank you!!

You are welcome 👍🏻
@@GRmotors appreciate it
Love this!! Really needed to see this. I’m about to start customizing my Tahoe and will be putting in a new dash
Love the sound of that V8! Good job. Thanks!
great video presentation my friend, I got a 2005 suburban and wanted to replace the dash board cover as well
No problem!
Great video.. one of the best tutorials / how to I've seen!
This video helped me take off my dash pad by myself, great video!! But i will ask in what order did you put everything back in??
Reverse order of how I took it apart
GR.motors thank you!!!
Awesome video!! After watching your video, I got the dash to pop right off! Thank you so much for posting it!
Fantastic video , exact same problem i'm having but its still a lot of work. great job
Awesome video!! I successfully got my dash off and now to get the new Dash and install
Thanks for the Video, I can now replace My cracked Dash Cover. Great Video.
Check the link in the video description!
Dude. Nice job. My 03 is rattling too and boy is it irritating
Good video ... thanks. Left me wondering about one thing though ... seems pretty likely that you broke one or more of the tabs on the underside/front (closest to windshield) of the dash top by yanking it straight out after removing the five anchor screws (that was the "pop" we heard), rather than lifting the back edge (furthest from windshield) just enough to get an arm in there and use a flashlight/pry tool to carefully lift the tabs out of the metal retaining clips they're secured in. If they're already broken, so be it I guess, but I'd sure rather save the original tabs, if I can, than break 'em all off and have to replace the tabs with double stick foam tape ...
They were broken already, that’s the reason I took the dash off in the first place
@@GRmotors … right, thanks … good "bush fix" for your rattles then. What's the actual year of the truck shown in the video? I saw another video on removal of the entire dash (heater core replacement) and that model had slide-in clips instead of the tab/retainer connectors shown in your video. I'm wondering what's actually under the dash cover in this location on mine: 2001 Suburban 1500.
2001
@@GRmotors ... thank you again, and after looking at a few more videos on removal of the dash cover, now I think I finally "get" what was confusing me about what I was seeing in your video ... you DID pull the dash cover out "correctly" (straight back) after removing all the screws, but it looks like a mechanic or prior owner of your vehicle didn't do it correctly during some earlier repair attempt, and broke off all the tabs/connectors that are supposed to remain in place on the underside (windshield end) when the cover is removed. So, what you ended up applying your double-stick tape to were the top surfaces of the slide connectors that previously got broken off. Glad I figured it out before attempting removal of this part on my truck!
