Vinyl is hanging. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) Looks like poo poo. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) I don't want to take apart the dash to glue it and have it fall off later. Sooooo... What glue to use and what recommendations do you have for installing? Measure twice. Cut once. Thanks, Pete |

Perhaps I mis typed previously.
I am only changing the dash face material: around the radio / glove box and where the switches are under the gauge cluster. I am hoping that I will only have to pull the kick panel and loosen the dash top / cap... that is after disconnecting the battery and removing everything... the switches, radio heater control cluster loosened etc. This is going to blow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) That's why I have been putting it off. |

That said, I just replaced my upper dash upholstery yesterday... not that bad at all! Assuming you have four hands, 12" long fingers, especially high patience and no where to be all weekend. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Have fun with the 2 plastic nuts behind the gauge pod. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) For those curious, I used 3M Super Trim adhesive with good results (so far anyway) and let it set up for 12-15 minutes as instructed by other World members. If you want it to look nice go ahead and remove the entire dash cap, it will be worth it when you're done! Also... I can see why people recommend doing this with the windshield removed! Not to deter anyone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
