How to take apart different pieces (interior)

[Angeski]

In the process of wrapping my interior trim and I'm curious about the front dash pieces like the LCD piano black piece around it and the flat piece behind the screen. Im also looking at removing the gauge cluster above the steering wheel. Does anyone have any pictures for this?

This video should help show you how you gain access to the screws you need to remove.

Ive taking off the middle piece of the center console and wrapped it but the other pieces of the center console are not soo easy. I havent been successful yet. I dont want to pay for the access to find out just yet. If i find out how they come off. I'll make sure to have pics. Here's a pic so far of what I've done

Which pieces are you trying to get to?

 

[Angeski]

The front piece. Where the air conditioner piece is. Im half tempted to just do an inlay on it. The trim removal kit I have isnt cutting it with that air conditioner.

Just updating some progress and some messy pics. For the center vents , I wrapped the inside black trim piece.

The first time I got into it I did have a sour stomach. Haha. Now I feel like its another day in my garage. Bought some knifeless tape to do an inlay for my gauge cluster. I'll be doing my door handles hopefully this week since im more comfortable with the wrap now. Call me crazy but I'm ready to tackle wrapping the car next.

Did some door handles. Did an inlay with knifeless tape.

Did you have to remove the entire door panel to get the section around the handles off, or were they just clipped on and popped off?

Whole door panel needs to come off. But then you notice plastic stamps around the handle . thise will need to be drilled a little in order to pop them loose. There's a vid of them. Figuring it out. Ill try and find the link later tonight and post it. Its carbon fiber interior pieces from element 6.

I will say be careful if your drilling. As far as i know, you cant buy that gloss handle piece without buyimg the whole door panel. So your talking 600 to 800 dollars if you drill a hole thru it

What film did you use for this? It's similar to the oem CF trim I have and I think the guage cluster surround would look so much better with that treatment.

I used the interior only carbon fiber wrap from vivid.that gauge cluster is something I would like to do also. Just have to wait until it heats up more.

Does the main center console sit flush with the top part(part that eas oeiginally gloas black around the AC controls)on your after covering it? Mine seems to have a little space and doesnt sit flat. I removed as mush extra film as possible. Indont remember paying attention to it bedore i wrapped it

I know you have to remove the middle front dash parts on both sides. This is where the air vent sections are. There's bolts behind that. There's also bolts on the top of the cluster underneath the dash but I havent done this yet. I'll send pics tonight of that online file

Also, I would like to see your console to see where it is uneven.
