Do you guys know how to take out the vents and piece around the Guages? I wanna paint them. I did this today. Its the piece infront of my keyboard. You know thw little wrist rest thing.

I took most of my interior apart its not that hard, but then again I have a S-14, I don't know anything about the S-13.

I can take all of it apart except for the area around the guages. I don't wanna break it. 12 year old plastic isn't know for its strength LOL.

Yeah, I could tell you how on an S14, but not an S13, that's a nice paintjob on the wrist pad thingy.  What'd you use?

Dupont Chromalusions in a can LOL. I have been painting Keyboards,Mice, Cases, and Monitors for people for a year or so. I've gotten pretty good at it.

to remove the plastic trim around the gauge just drop the steering column

4 bolt to unbolt

remove the plastic cover on the steering after that you can access 2 hidden bolts and there are 2 other near the firewall

and after its a piece of cake just be gently! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>
