Hi Guys,
I'm in the middle of removing the instrument pad assembly to get at the HVAC to replace the heater core.
All the info I've been able to find on here about removing the instrument pad assembly relates to the VT or VX.
I had expected to be able to remove the instrument pad assembly without needing to remove the steering wheel. The pictures in the thread here https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/heater-core-replacement-pics.51997/#post-524387 shows the steering wheel still fitted.
I cannot see how you get the pad assembly over the steering wheel in the VY. Is there something I'm missing?
If I have to take the steering wheel off it looks like I need a special tool to remove the airbag. Can I make one of these or is there another tool I can use to release the clips?
Thanks for your help.
