Take your time when you are installing it. It should be done on a warm day or indoors. The parts and surfaces should be gently warmed up with a hair dryer. Pre fit everything before you expose the adhesive - you only get ONE chance to get it right. The hardest part on the 2K is the piece above the shifter because it has multiple curves. You may want to bribe a friend to help out, a second set of hands can be useful to hold the dryer while you position the piece.

When I put mine in two of us did the install. One to hold the hair dryer, one to work with the kit. Total install time 20 - 25 min.
Check your pieces first to make sure that they are all there.
Easy job to do.

If you are weary about do this install, might want to think about a MOLDED kit. That way you dont have to worry about heat guns and sticky tape and only getting once chance, plus it looks better cause it looks more OEM, and not like a piece of wood STUCK on top of the old moldings
