there are 7 from what i can remember

once the instrument cluster is out you've got 2 behnd that
one on one of the vents on the drivers side by the switches
one underneath that
one underneath the centre vents
and then there is a clip behind the centre vent that WILL break if you don't unscrew it first
this requires a lot of dexterity and i may have a spare one i can take a pic of in the morning to show you exactly how much of a fucker it is

if you get the little sticky foam draft excluder things that go down edge of doors just stick that along the inside edge of dash takes most of the squeeks away.done this with my old xr2 and was sooo much better.or just put little rubber pads next to were you screw to dash and just stops the plastic rubbing and squeeking.
