35878, Painting interior help Posted by RSConversion, Dec-04-02 09:57 AM
Ok I have a slite problem, my entire interior is gonna be white and light blue I have done everything fine up to the point when I tryed to remove my dash and relized it was glued the freak on there! Ok so whats better to do just leave it in and spray it in their with everything taped off? Or is it better to try and rip it out?

unless i am wrong i think you should probably take out the dash, start at the bottom and work your way up, dont think it is glued, but just heavy, dunno though

if you dont have much of an idea on how to get the dash out, I would just leave it in and paint it. There are lots of harnesses to unplug n you could miss one or two putting the dash back in or somethin. Just mask the hell out of everything, n spray away. rememer not to spray to close. spray nice light even coats until your desired color. good luck.

the dash is not glued in. You might not have taken all the bolts out. Did you get the ones under the tweeters? And the wiring harnesses are no problem. They are all color coded and simply unplug from each other(omly about 5-6). You car will probably only smell for about a week, if that.

i left mine in when i painted it, and mine is a little thin up near the dash too...i would take it out if you can, but it will work if you leave it in too.
