I was talking about this one. It's a bit confusing though.
dont chicken out now man! just get it over with. u'll be glad you did it in the end.
i did my upper/lower dash, 2 front door pannels, rear side pannels, upper front/rear window trims, and both a-pillars with 3 cans of Landau Black. It looks factory..no one even believes its painted when they look at it. I did this last Dec and it still looks new today. I spent a lot of time prepping every surface, which is vital.

I will use rubbing alcohol for prep. Anyway, I removed all the nuts from airbag, clips from pillars, cluster, bolts near cluster, and still the trim moves a little but doesn't go. What's up with that? Btw I didn't touch HVAC, should I remove it too?
Also, I didn't remove steering column, do I really have to? I doesn't seem so...

Does the steering wheel have to come off or can just the upper and lower covers come off around the column? I was thinking it will clear if the steering is all the way out and down. Any thoughts?

Steering does not have to come off, it comes out very tight but you can do it, I did w/o taking steering column off.

Did you have any problems after assembly with electronics? My temp gauge stopped working; for some reason it says 0 all the time...
