I'm a Nurse... and was relying on personal opinion based on observation. Based on that new information, I gladly retract my statement and support yours. I don't really agree with suede'ing the dash anyhow... it's a big enough dust magnet as it is :P

Brief Update

I had an idea, which my dad later suggested to me also, and being that it wouldnt take long, I went ahead and did it.
Lots of you guys told me to paint the plastic window-switch trim Flat-Black.
I agree that would look good, but I think this way is even better.








Whattya's think?

I think it looks awesome
But let me get this straight,
1. buy "suede?" material from the store
2. apply "glue?" to part you want in suede
3. cover part in material and cut around edges

is that about right? any specific suede or glue that should be used?

lol i think i ask you questions every time you post an update, eventually i'm going to get to doing this

Use the kind in the How-To for the doors, and you can use spray adhesive on the other parts.

Thanks, Im glad you think its Awesome.

I was gonna check and see if wal-mart has some suede
Is there anyway to get the whole plastic part of the door out? I don't think those two bolts on the sides are for nothing

I'm fairly certain we are all speaking about micro suede not real "suede" right?

I would say try a fabric store, or a custom interior shop, upholsteri shop.
