Taking my dash apart???

Postby LarsBud » Fri Jan 15, 2010 11:14 am

Ok Guys who here has taken apart their dash? Like to have an idea what I maybe getting into.
I’m planning to do some painting. The center dash area upper and middle, the molding above the glove box and on the driver side and the trim around the cluster.

You should do the silver parts in the door panels red too to match.

I have the manual doors and the 5 speed, so there is no chrome.
It's the trim above the glove box that throws me off, can't tell if it's screwed or just clipped in.

i think it is the brushed/painted silver pieces he is talking about?

but for the piece about to glove box, pull the glovebox out and check. i want to say it is screwed in from the back, only because i seem to recall seeing a screw on the one by the dimmer switch, although it may have been holding something else?

Yeah, that's what I was talking about. I don't need to paint mine though cuz' my car is silver. I really want an aluminum interior trim kit. I found the CF ones, but I'm on the fence about it. :roll:
