Fun part will be the install. Had to call in my wife and her much smaller long fingers to start one troublesome nut somewhere around the ash tray. Have a picture somewhere of her flat on her back under the dasy in a somewhat compromising position but I'll spare her the embarrassment.

I'm sure it will be a PITA. right now I'm blocked from moving further, because i have one screw in the knee bolster that refuses to move. its the one just to the right of the steering column, no way to get to the back of it, i tried PB blaster through the trap door hole there, don't know if I'm hitting the nut/ screw at all, but i'm stripping the head of the screw, and if that happens, with it being recessed in the knee bolster, i don't really see a way to cut it off - i guess I'l have to drill off the head and go from there
