101350, interior swap worries
Posted by KING SIZE, Jun-23-08 05:47 AM
before i begin tearing out my interior is there anything i should know?

i'll be swapping grey interior from my 95 talon with tan/black from a 98 eclipse

the eclipse has power windows and my talon has manual, i'm going to save that for a whole other project

i've never removed the entire dash are there any parts or steps that i need to be super careful with?

i have the diagrams from the CAPS section to help guide me also

thx

Do the power windows and locks now. It will be easier.

Other than that, just start stripping stuff apart, pay attention to the way it comes apart.

and be aware that taking the dash out is the biggest pain in the ass, and no matter what you do, it will never go back in the way it came out. other than that taking all the other parts out is cake, and wont be any problems.. if the clips arent popping just hunt for hidden screws.

yeah interior is pretty easy, just keep track of plastic clips and be sure to keep your eye on the way the dash comes out, they never go back in easy
