Things you don't enjoy doing on cars

Once the first side has popped up, do the other, no need to try and lift. They usually pop up by themselves, once they are forced out of the floor bracket.
I hear ya on laying under a dash. Last week I spent a few "quality" days building the instrument panel back up and installing it my '66 Chevelle. Still a long way to go to have the whole interior in, but it was a start.

Thanks Mitch, but I know exactly how they are secured with the bracket. Its never easy, but finally get it out.
