DASHBOARD

Anyone in durbs able to take out my dash board so that i can have it redone with carbon wrap and finish off some parts in gloss black? just like in the pic but i want gloss black trim as apposed to red.

why dont you take it out yourself?

honestly time is a big issue and i honestly will break it somehow haha

lol ok

i work monday to saturday and no real work bench for me to put things and do it.

I wouldn't recommend wrapping your dash. What's wrong with your dash? If its in good condition leave as is and keep it clean, but that wrap doesn't last well inside the car where it gets a lot of sun, friend did it to his centre console and the wrap with age went soft and kind of sticky, from the sun and the heat inside the car, but that same brand and roll of wrap lasted fine on the outside, perhaps it was the brand, but to go through the effort of removing the dash to wrap it I wouldn't recommend, but up to you dude.
I do like the sprayed pieces though, thinking of doing mine a metallic blue.

ok cool

well my dash is perfect at the moment, no cracks scratches or anything. well ill leave the wrap but i would like to have the other trim done in gloss black. so if anyone could help it would be much appreciated.

Removal of the dash panels are easy and will take less than 15 minutes.

I did this a few years ago and the panels are removed fairly easily.

The radio surround just clips off. Firstly grab it firmly around the opening of the gear lever boot and pull up, the pull towards you and it will dis-lodges itself.
The cluster surround has about 8 x screws that need to be loosened, but bear in mind that the steering column cover needs to be removed first. It has about 4 - 6 screws at the bottom.

As for the wrap, the one u posted a pic of in Ernest's car. I drove in it recently and is still 100%. He did it proper as it is his profession afterall.

All in all, removal of the dash is just as easy. Takes less than half hour to remove everything from start to finish. Also gives u a good opportunity to neaten up cables below dash and get a better understanding of what makes up the harness of a sx.

Good luck!!!
