you don't need to remove the dash, matrix in a FRST is a joy to do, remove the 2 matrix pipes under the bonnet, remove the centre console, unclip the bottom of the heater box & pull the matrix out


the clips nomally break on the heater box but buzz a couple of holes in it & secure it with cable ties.

as matt says, its piss mate!

just undo the pipes and it basically pulls out, no screws to undo (apart from hose clips!)
