Hi everybody,
I have some questions regarding removing and reinstalling the dash. I'd like to swap over the last piece of the LL Bean interior I picked up:
Note: this is just a swap of dashes between two 3rd gen wagons.
- How long should removing and reinstalling the dash take? This is my primary vehicle so I'd like to know how long the dash swap will have it out of commission: an afternoon, a day, a weekend?
- Does the wiring harness un-clip from the shell easily? The wrecker cut the harness to get the dash out - also, the black dash is from a 6cylinder while my car is just the 4 cylinder the wiring will have to be swapped over as well.
- How long of rivets will I need to put the VIN tag from the brown dash (the shell of the car) onto the black dash? They look like small rivets so its being a challenge to find them small enough.
- Are there any other supplies I will need for the swap?
- Is there anything else I should be aware of during the dashboard swap?
I'd like to put the black dash put in the car so it's no longer being stored in the travel trailer and no longer at risk of getting broken.
Cheers!
