The guy in the video is using vinyl, which is easier to do. You can heat it up with a heat gun and use a steamer to remove wrinkles. Much harder with leather. You wont be able to do the boxster or 911 dash without removing it. Those little (3) strips are bolted on the back, and need to be removed. You can only get to them from the the back of the dash. I highly recommend you get it stitched. My 911 has alcantara with no stitching, and my boxster with the stitching looks so much better. It gives it that supercar look.

Here is a customer car that I'm doing an alarm on, it 's alcantara with white stitching:



Here is my boxster with red stitching. Excuse the mess I'm adding a AEM temp gauge. Currently painting my bezel rings. I just finished the double din, alarm and dual camerasetup. Sub box is just there for testing
