I decided to re-do the woodgrain on my dash and ordered the woodgrain with the metal backing. What is the best way to adhere it to the dash?
I also need to remove the bezel around the wiper switch to do this. Any tip's? thanks

I am sure that someone or 2 or 100 have done this before. No help? I guess then I will just glue it on with construction adhesive Just kidding.

I used 3M plastic emblem and trim adhesive.

I need to do the same thing, so would you post as to where you bought the woodgrain kit and how it went on. How did it look when completed. thanks d. Crim

re: How to attach? it comes with a self adhesive on the backing. Just make sure you have a clean surface to apply it to. I have had no trouble with mine - it was the metal backed one. Stuck on good and tight.

re: How to remove the bezel? It comes off from behind the dash. 2 little speed nuts hold it in there. You need to remove the little head on the wiper switch first. It's a really tiny allen head screw that I believe is on the bottom. Just like the controls on the heater/AC.

I got it from The Parts Place. No sticky back. Now that I opened the packages and looked close at it, there was a tag that say's to use the 3m gel trim and emblem adhesive. I might get it installed Wednesday. I'll let you know how it fit.

Good to know. The one I got had a pull off film on the backside that protected the adhesive. They must be getting cheap with some of their parts now. Can't remember who the vendor was for mine- too long ago.
