That sounds like Big Al (M5)
He was always helping folks.
While I don't have a factory tech book on those yet, do have a Haynes manual that may be of some use. Will give that a glance and report back if I find anything that can be of assistance.
From memory-
Gut the entire glove box, remove the radio, next is the climate control panel stuff and anything else in that general area, remove the trim panels & drop the steering column, then the control switches & lights stuff on the left side to disconnect/remove, then finally the instrument cluster.
Keep in mind that this may not all happen in that exact order of disassembly- its about whatever makes it easier.......if there is such.
Can't remember about the Ac ductwork registers, but that shouldn't be too bad.
After all that, should be a brace or 2 and getting the fastners out of the main support places to get that busted dash assembly out.
