just tape up your windsheild and pillars with newspaper and masking tape. that's what I did. remove the HVAC covers, the inserts and dash gauge bezel, cover steering wheel with tshirt....your good to go.

stick with your basic darker colors, red, blue, black, brown, dark green, etc.....otherwise you will have a glare with yellow, white, or lite colors.

Yes you can go all the way up to the windsheild...just use LOTS of paper and tape! Also, cover your VIN # with a piece of tape ;-)

Go spend a couple of bucks and get a Chiltons Manual. THats what everybody that has taken their dash out has suggested to do. Well worth the money it costs. You can use it too find out alot of stuff.
