should be behind the dash cubby slot on the passenger upper dash
you can get to it by removing the glove box (possibly)

 

drivers side lower dash mate.

 

that ones much easier to get too

 

dont suppose anyone has any pics??

 

i'll get them up for some time tomorrow
both locations

the one under the drivers side is easy to get to, a few screws to remove the drivers side lower dash panel and you can see it, it should have the alarm ecu piggy backed onto it, you can see the securing clips just behind the drivers side glove box cubby hole thing

the dash is at the other house, been working all weekend so ain't had time to go round
you shouldn't need pics but if you want a talk through i'll tell you how to get the drivers side off

you've got to remove the steering cowling first, one screw in the top, but you need to undo the 2 long screws at the back, then the 3 small screws at the front to get it all off propelry
make sure you screw them back in correctly too,it's probably the easiest thing to screw up and then you spend ages getting to fiddle with it to get it right again
you also need to unscrew the trim on the drivers side sill (adjustable seats still means it's a pain in the arse to do unless you have a stubby screwdriver)
then the drivers side kick panel (one screw but it's a pig to get it back on again because there is a fair bit of loom and stuff behind it to negotiate first)
then you need to slightly pull the door rubber away from the hinge part to get the panel clear to come out
there is one screw here
open the glove box and use the stubby phillips ot unscrew the 2 screws in there
there is also one screw on the other side of the steering column to find as well as one either side of the lower dash
you might need new fingernails if you aren't carefull getting the plastic push in things out of the lower dash that hold the bit of carpet around the pedals
now you have to pull the dash out from the piller and then sideways from the centre to get the 2 lugs free
and there you ave it, out in one peice
with a bit of luck this should be done in about 5 minutes
the other side is a bit more tricky

 

cheers dojj much appreciated ill give it a go when it stops pissing down

 

gonna pop round the other gaff later (got to get a bike out) so i'll get some snaps if i can
