I have a rattle was created by Lambert
Hi how much of a ball ache is removing the dashboard? I have a rattle that is not aiding my sanity coming from the off side of the dashboard, I may be able to get at it with the cluster out but if not what am I looking at time wise? Cheers

Knowing well who used the car before me I am prepared to find bits of rusty nails and screws and washers and all manner of junk. :blink:

I had some problems with such nervbreaking noises!
At that time i also thought it was behind my dashboard but i didn't found anything that could make such noises.
After some hours i did found out that the noises came from 2 rubbers that are just above the lights.
See picture below, red arrow.
You can regulate these in height, when i did this the noises were gone !!!
Maybe you can check this out before taking your dash out ?
It's worth the try !!! B)

Cheers I will check that. I have to say that the rattle does sound like something on the bottom part of the windscreen it has that delicate plinking sound, but I agree I will try anything to avoid the dash coming out.
