Dash
How is the interior dash (I think it is referred to as the eyebrow) riveted to the door jamb? I see the heads of the rivets when I open the door but have felt around the back and cant see where the other side is? Mabye this will be apparent once I pull the body off (hopefully this weekend).
I originally was going to mask and dye in place but it appears the cost of this thing is only $125. Since I am replacing everything else would hate to have a "re-painted" dash.

There are five 3/16" pop-rivets on each side; to remove the main dash, remove the bolts across the top (under the lower windshield garnish molding), drill out all ten pop-rivets at the ends, break the bond at the bottom center to the floor below the radio opening, and the entire main dash will pull right out.
