Just lay some newspaper out in a room in your house. Overspray doesn't really happen..

washed with soap and hot water in 20 min, i sprayed it in 20 minutes including the OHC and dome light and covering the lid was another 40 and fixing the crack was 10 so hour and a half

you can add another 30 min for removing it from the explorer though lol it was a bitch

That came out great man, do you think that would hold up on a dash/ door panels? I'm too cheap, not to mention there's no fx4s around here with black interiors at any yards

Not sure if you have taken one of the long console out StxDangerRanger.
There are a lot of clips AND if you are not careful you WILL break them.
I attempted two of the long console, broke the side on both consoles and if I knew P.C. was so good at repairing them I would have had him fix them up and paint them to order.

Take your time and IF there is a tool to release these clips it would be a blessing.

Always Always Always carry one of these.


Never met a clip i couldn't remove with it.
If i recall right, it should just bolt to a bracket that bolts to the floor.

Let me re-phrase.
Never broke a clip with one of those. I use that tool more at the junkyard than anything else.
