hi MC, ive just had a look in the haynes book of jokes & they give it 4 spanners :o, it all looks rather fiddly & time consuming, you might want to consider vinylcoat, ive used it in the past & has given a good finish, the cheaper makes are not as good, i dont suppose you can beat changing the dash but be prepared for some headaches,also you will not be able to use your irish screwdriver only the normal variety ;D, oh as predicted it rained on me with one difficult bolt to go >:(, so back on it tomorrow weather permitting,anyhow if you havent got the haynes manual you could borrow mine or i could try scanning the appropriate pages & email them to you.
