Bill, I know you love whipping out that picture to scare folks who venture into the dash... why don't you post a pic of the 79?

Funny thread, I think I'll live with the character lines on my leather pod. I'm also amazed at the condition of my wiring and under pod/dash condition of my euro. It still looks showroom.

I've really got my fingers crossed that everything goes back as easily as it came out.

Good luck! Be sure to post the "after" pic with your thoughts on the process from a first-time standpoint; how long, tips that you would suggest, etc. I'd like to do it myself, but just don't want to have it "down" any longer than necessary. I also know I'd find a few other While You're At It's...
