Interior time!
Well I am into the new house and settled in...which means more time for the baby.
What started as a door pannel and interior door rebuild ended as an empty interior...no dash, no consoles, and bare floorboards.
Just ordered the new dash...was blown away at what those cost...(about $500). I would have done the cap thing but mine was cracked and hanging down in few places...needed to whole shi-bang.
Any advice on reinsertion of the dash would be helpful. It was a PITA getting the old one out and I don't want to treat the new one the same way. :o
Cheers!

Great instructions....thanks for that. I appreciate the advice on easy, gentle, and slow....I don't want to force the new one in...
Do wish I had the removal instructions when I took the old one out. Would have saved me some work...and a few curse words.
Thanks guys!
