help please -removing the dash

I have previously been a Land Rover owner, having started with a 1960 S2 followed by a 1989 Land Rover Discovery, however after the clutch on the Discovery died and it spectacularly failed it’s MOT I was left without a 4x4 for three years.

Once getting a new job, I decided to treat myself to another 4x4, I have had several friends who have had Suzuki Jimny’s before and all of them have loved them, and they have proved to be a relatively cheap 4x4 to own and run, so I decided to go for a Jimny. Originally I was looking at a 3 year old (ish) Jimny, but it seemed to make more finical sense to buy a new one, so that is what I have done.

Here she is as I bought her;

And a couple of her first trips out and about.

First off all I added an off road scratch on her, within two weeks off having bought her. (It looks worse - or better dependent on your opinion - in the flesh)

I then put some all terrain tyres on her. (Competus A/T 4x4 - 205 / 70 R15)

Followed by a new bonnet mounted number plate after having lost two number plates whilst laning in the past.

And here she is in her current form, much cleaner than normal

My CB setup

I also plan to get underneath the car with some waxoil at some point over the winter, and pretty much coat everything I can in it to try and prevent any rust. And also think about some under body protection and a lift, but I need to watch this with the car being under warranty. And that is all the mods planned for now, but once the warranty is up I have a thing or to in mind - Apparently a Willies Jeep body will fit directly onto a Jimny chassis - that could be fun to try...

Hi,

I need to get behind the button below the hazard light on my jimmy to disconnect a button...as it is totally stuck in there... any ideas of where the screws are that I need to pull that part of the dash forwards?

Thanks very much

what year is it on my jimny there are to screws in the speedo area at the top take them out and give it a good yank

Hi mate,

It's a 2003 02 convertible, I did undo those 2 screws but it still seemed stuck right in there, will give it another try today

thanks for your help
