New dash cap installation
« on: November 06, 2010, 09:52:47 am »
Just got my dash cap and door panels in from Chris yesterday. Looks really nice. Getting ready to start on the dash cap shortly. Have been waiting for it warm up a little outside. Does anyone know anything that I should know before starting? I plan to remove the gauge cluster and spiff it up a bit and remove the "band" with the AC vents from the front of the dash and spiff it up some too. I am going to replace the AC vents as well while I have it apart.

It's pretty straight forawrd. Make sure the dash is clean.

Make sure you remove all the trim and anything that is bowed or sticking up.

I got your PM on the fitment.  Post or email me the pics of the issues.
