Looks Like I'm FINALLY Able To Post My Own Thread Here Okay So I Was Awaken By My Pops This Past Saturday While He Was At A Junkyard And He Told Me About The 3 Junk Maximas They Had In The Yard. I Hop Up And Immediately Head Over There To See What They Have. And What Do I Find? A Mint Interior From A 99 SE Black Leather Heated Seats, Door Panels, Steering Wheel, Practically Everything. Offered To Sell It To Me For 200 Cash Which I Gladly Accepted. Anyways, Had To Go To Work And My Dad Calls And Tells Me That They Aren't Able To Take Out The Black Dash (Which Is What I Really Wanted). How Difficult Do You Guys Think It Is To Have My Brown Dash Removed And Swapped For The Black? I've Heard Anywhere From An Hour To 10 Although 10 Doesn't Seem Logical.

 

It's really not that bad, you'd be suprised. As for time, I dunno, probably 5 to get the old one out & new one in? I dunno, but it's not like some cars.

 

Hell, I'd Pay Someone To Take The Dash Out For Me And They Can Keep The Brown One

 

It's more time consuming than difficult.

Here's a thread on dash removal.

Just sounds like a lot of work, and you have to make sure that you put everything back properly so that theres no rattling while you're driving.

 

Definitely not hard. Just a lot of screws and such to keep track of.

 

Anyone Close To The PA Area That Will Be Able To Help Me Out?

 

It really is confusing if you dont know what you're doing

 

Yeah From What I've Been Told... That's Why I'm Looking For Some Help Since This'll Be My First Time Doing So

 

i have taken out and replaced over 50 of these many members from nyc have had me done the swap out, i part out 4th gens all the time, but im not near by you its very simple once the dash in unbolted and remember there are 10mm bolts right where the dash meets the windshield as well you have to pry out the plastic to access them

 

Well If I Can Get My Hands On A Black Dash I'd Be Willing To Travel To Your Neck Of The Woods To Ensure That The Job Gets Done Correct And There's No Rattling

 

I just made the swap from tan leather brown dash to all black on black on black.
so i took everything and i mean everything from a 99se and bought new black carpet and the install took about a week working on it off and on.
but the turn out was amaze and well worth it.

 

You have to have a first time sometime. Everyone is nervous doing something the first time, but like we are all telling you, it's not that bad. It will take you longer to drive round trip to NY then it will to do it your self.

 

You're Absolutely Right... I'll Give It A Shot When Time Permits

 

Inspiring Words... I'm Gonna Go Back To The Junk Yard And Get Them To Pull The Dash Out When I Get Paid Again... Where'd You Get The Black Carpet From? I May Do That And Just Keep The Tan Headliner
