What order is best for installing these: Dash sheet metal Dash cap Dash lower pad Dash vinyl that goes up to windshield dash to windshield seal windshield anything else? What do you install on the dash sheet metal before putting it in the car? I put on the basketweave vinyl and wired all the switches and guages. What holds the climate control sliders to the dash? Thanks, John |

Bumping this up, as I am getting the dash metal structure ready to reinstall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I agree with this: 1. Dash vinyl that goes up to windshield (with .125" foam under) 2. Dash to windshield seal (standing by, ordered from 914 rubber and blacked out the area around defroster vents) 3. Dash cap (still needs dolling up) 4. Dash sheet metal into car this is where my questions are: Does the metal dash structure use rubber spacers at mounting studs? If so, what kind? Does the heater slider control face install behind the metal dash or is it mounted after dash is installed? When are the dash basket weave face plates installed? 5. Windshield 6. Dash lower pad Feel free to add any other tips to this list! |

There is a #6 bolt that attaches the rear of the unit to the bulkhead. Be sure to R&R the bulbs before you get too far.You can install those face trim pieces whenever. Don't forget the glove box door. It's a little easier to do that before the dash openings get covered up. And paint those vents. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)  |
