Next I will pull the Center Console, radio and some of the dash so I can tape up the air flow door that is coming apart sending bits of debris through the air vents. I am going to carbon fiber wrap the console while I have it off because mine is scratched up. I’m also going to carbon fiber wrap the plastic on the doors by the window switch.
I will try to post pictures but I have difficulty posting on this site.

Thanks for your help!
Same here... torque wrench challenges... hand tightened. I worried about it for a week or so... waiting for leaks... nothing. All good.

Yeah... the air flow... foam. Likewise, here. I'm looking forward to your writeup!

Cheers!
