You will find it a lot easier if you take the full lot out in one piece,ie dash still attatched to the steel frame,center console,loom,......i refitted mine,built it all up in on piece in the garage and it just drops in,take care refitting all the heater ducting,it took me all day to get mine out,got one out from a breakers in a hour and half.

Its a sort of 3D optical illusion.

I would say though, one my eyes got accustomed to it, its the windscreen pillar covers.
