So, pad off and liner removed. 3 years ago I used a spray contact cement, but the porous nature of the material made that unreliable.

So this time I brushed on the contact cement, and maybe went a bit thick.

Getting the liner in place, while some brown paper keeps the two sides from sticking.

Stuck on better (I hope), and ready to roll.

Next up, a slight snap noise--sometimes--when I opened the trunk lid. Turns out the right side engine grill panel was barely high enough to make contact. Easy fix.

Still revisiting things I "fixed" during the main rebuild. This time the console lid. The screws that hold the hinge to the lid were always dodgy, but recently 2 of 3 pulled out.

To restore the holes I glued in some pieces of toothpick. When dried, I trimmed the excess.

Now all the screws can bite hard, and hold the hinge firmly.
