Do it yerself mate! dead easy!
Well not actually but there is a quick and easy way - Take the glovebox out!
There are two rivet things in the top rail, you need to drill those out, then when you refit use a couple of self tappers, works a treat!
The Phillips head screw that holds the pipes in is a bit of a stinker too! Best to get a very short stubby driver or a hex head on a ratchet.
Plain sailing after that

Sorry mate I didnt realise yours was a 2.
Well good luck then.

corection p2 405 matrix can be done without removal of entire dash
So? Aint ya gonna tell?
Did you take any photos? You could put together a little guide to help others out in the future?
Basically took out the glove box and then found that the lower bar bolts in and is welded to a tubular metal bar basically cut the tubular bar that it was welded to and hopefully the main bar should re attach
