Radio Trim Removal Q?
I'm pulling all the trim (to cover the fkn yellow that was done to it before), and am having trouble with the trim around the radio. The whole bottom half pulled right off. But it is hanging at the top, around the hazard button etc. Is there something holding it in? I don't want to just yank and break something if there is more to it than clips.

There's a screw behind the middle cover. Pop the cover open to remove the screw.

Between the hazard button and (i think) rear defrost button?

Project De-Rice has begun! Currently repainting all of the bright fucking yellow spraypainted interior panels. Using a a nice metallic teal that is colormatched to the exterior. Not clearcoating though, I don't want all that shine in my interior :P

Pics don't show the color very well, the lighting in my garage sucks, as well as my camera phone.


Still a lot more to do, this is just the first few pieces. Have to do the trim around the dimmer switch etc, as well as the pocket and speaker grill area on the doors, the handle/switch bezel on the doors, and the pillars. I picked up some dark teal crushed velvet that I will be wrapping the pillars in, as well as the headliner, rather than painting over.

Thats how mine is... I tried removing the paint but it's that vinyl dye shit so it wasn't wanting to come off very well. So I'm just painting it color matched with the car.

Irony?

It's very dark and I'm using the flat version. It honestly doesn't look bad at all. If I were to clear coat it, it would look bad, but as is, I'm OK with it. It's much better than the bright yellow that was originally there.
