Proceed to remove the Driver's Dashboard Undercover.

Remove the driver's dashboard undercover (A).
1-1 Gently pull down the rear edge to detach the clips. Because of the rear hooks (B) which are located above the driver's dashboard lower cover ©, the undercover doesn't fall down.
1-2 Slightly pull the undercover rearward, with its rear edge above the driver's dashboard lower cover, to release its holder (D) from the pin (E).
1-3 Lower the front of the undercover to release the rear hooks from the driver's dashboard lower cover.
1-4 If equipped, disconnect the foot well light connector (F).

Install the undercover in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
• If the clips are damaged or stress-whitened, replace them with new ones.
• Push the clips into place securely.
• If equipped, make sure the foot well light connector is plugged in properly.
• Make sure the holder of the undercover is installed securely to the pin.

NOTE:
• Take care not to scratch the dashboard and its related parts.
• When removing components, use the trim tools or equivalent.
