98 Dash Pad Removal, among other inquiries

I've been browsing around and can't seem to find anything on it... As 95% of the 2nd gens do, my dash is shot... I tried to get it off piece by piece, but it started to mess with me when it didn't just come off... Can it come off without the whole dash coming with it? I took all of the screws I could find off, yet it didn't come out... Maybe there were some that are tucked up underneath, behind the speedo cluster and radio? I'm sure some of y'all have done this before. I'd love to start up with my interior remodeling....

Next, is there anyone that sells aftermarket seats? I don't mean full Corbeau racing buckets, just something a little different, without having to go get it re-upholstered. I can't have the truck sitting around too much since I need it daily for work and school. So I would need to order it and have it ready to swap in almost immediately. I haven't looked into this much, but figured I'd just throw it out and see if anyone has any suggestions.

Thanks in advance, for anyone who has something to offer lol I'm sure I'll think of something else along the way too.

The whole instrument panel and dash needs to be unbolted.

Wonderful... lol Have you heard anything about those plastic, glue-on covers? Seen em on eBay for around $130. Thinking about going that route...

They really only work if you have a solid enough dash to attach them to. Otherwise they like to fall off.

Well... That eliminates that idea. Guess I'm tearing it all out come warm weather.

Good time to replace the heater core and clean the A/C coils and the HVAC box.

Yeah, I have another OE core to go in. I was going to replace it back when my transmission was blown, but this stopped me. As for the A/C, I may remove it entirely. I've got windows lol

Eh, you've got windows and you're up north. Need the a/c down here.

I have replaced a couple of them they are not that bad just take your time
