Hi im trying to figure out how to get the top above the dash and maybe side panels off, my light switch which i squezzed out the left because i have dash looose,and left side panel i have a burnt wire on headlites, would be nice to have side off i got where it moves a little, seems like its connected to the top panel, and i want to check my indicator lights some dont work, so if the top panel could come off would help, have been scratching my head over this one, Happy Easter

In my experience, both top panels need removed(front first)and the lower side panel to get to all the fasteners holding the side panel

The panels are interconnected
I've never been able to remove side panels without removing all other panels first. Start by removing engine side panels. This will expose a spring on each side to remove top front panel and the front bolts of side panel. After that, the bolts are exposed to remove rear top panel. That in turn exposes the top bolts holding the side panel. Roll back the floor mat to expose and remove bolts holding the lower panels to the floor and side panel. Remove lower side panel(slide rearward in to cab). By this time the rest of the side panel bolts are exposed.
This is what I go through. If anyone has a better method please chime in. Now is a good time to check over EVERYTHING while it's open including clutch cable adjustment and lubrication.
