dashboard cover removal
 

thanks
 

This is a really nice write-up! I will be using it at some point not too distant. Thanks for putting this together.

Thanks! May I post it to my web site?

Wow, this very well done and invaluable to the forum.+1:cheers:

Hi Randall. you are more then welcome to do so.
I also posted similar DIY for heater core removal/replacement, and AC evaporator replacement.
Thank you for to warm words Kenny.

Excellent write up thank you!

@Meir,

Those instructions are a work of art! Little arrows and all. That must have taken some time! Even pics of the tools used. Looked better than a Pelican writeup.

Hope I never have to be up to my arse in dash! I only thought I wanted to paint that little-bitty trim piece running through the dash. After seeing how much work it is….I'll pass on the dash! If I ever have to, at least I will know how! Good writeup.

Not sure about the other link. Might try another file sharing site…or just post them here! Cannot have too many DIYs! You learn SOMETHING from everyone….even if it only to stay away! Present company excluded, of course! :rolleyes:

Hi Mark.
Thanks man.
BTW I'm not sure you need to remove the dashboard, in order to get the stripes out.
They are held by screws from behind, and I think you can get to it by only removing the air tunnels. I'm n the road now, I'll check it and give you a call when I'm back home.

Hi Guys

Great write up Meir!

Mark I did the dash strips a while ago it wasn't too bad really.

Nice write up. Thank you!

@Christian,

Thanks for the info….I KNEW I had seen this procedure! I wanted to match the places where you had the color….uh, except in silver! I have never seen green look so good! I think it just adds a "newer" look to the car, NICE!

Thank Meir….got it covered. Whew! Dodged a bullet on that dash removal thing. Yea!

Very nice!

good writeup, will use. :D

updated the link

The link's not working for me.

Pm me your email address, and I will email you the off file.
I can open the link from both my computer and cell phone, so I'm not sure what is the problem.
Need to find a better way then Dropbox to store the file.

It worked for me. GREAT writeup. Thanks.

Ok.
I have a feeling you need to have a Dropbox app installed on your computer or phone, in order to download it.
I will try to post another link later for Google docs.

thanks chuck.
