I have a 9-5 and there is an annoying rattle in the a/c grill up on top left
of the dash and also the vent just to the right of the driver. During
accelleration the rattles stop but reappear when stopped or at a constant
speed.

How can I remove these to find out what is rattleing?

And

What is the procedure for removing the computer panel from above the radio?

TIA, GWB

I'm not a 9-5'er, but I bet you can't without pulling the dash.

If you mean the SID, just poke some nails or similar in the holes and
sort of pull it out. It's not held in by anything.

9-5 SID doesn't have holes like the NG900's SID, easiest way if to
remove the radio using some DIN tools and then pull it out or, if you
are careful you can lever it out using a screwdriver with some packing
to protect the dash - it's only clipped it.
