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

I have yet to remove the metal frame, but I'd bet Brad Mayer could shed some light on this. I thought it was a metal to metal contact, no rubber bushing, but I can't say for sure.


Yes the dash frame has simple rubber washers at 4 (I think) stud locations accessed from inside the cowl.
Word of caution... Stretch first before tackling the removal of those nuts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Thank you for the information! I am reinstalling the metal sub structure and because the studs were so long, I figured rubber washers or something had to be in there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Edit: rubber isolation washers have been confirmed 100% under the metal dash structure to body. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
