I'm trying to access the driver's side dash panel on my 2005 SRT6 Roadster. I have looked in the service manual as well as other threads. It would seem to remove the light gray panel in the attached pic would be a simple matter. This light gray panel does not seem to show up anywhere in the service manual. Only advice there is removing the entire lower dash panel. And there is no advice about how to get the light gray panel off. Anyone had experience with this?

 

It seems you are trying to remove the "knee bolster". Try reading this thread and see if it has the information you are looking for. Start at the 1st post.

Good luck!

Thanks. Looks like I was barking up the wrong tree. Knee Bolster doesn't bother me. I was looking for simple dash access and I now see that removing Knee Bolster won't do that. Does the flat panel under the dash come off without removing the whole lower dash panel. Looks like only 3 or 4 screws hold it in? Thanks for your help in keeping me on right track.
