i havnt gotten bold enough for the door pieces and steering wheel pieces yet the one for the pieces around the vents span from the radio area to the flip open compartment. Unscrew the screw under the ac *****, and the top screws on both the sides of the compartment. You wont need to unscrew the others since the piece doesnt go down that far. Ad wedge something in between the pieces and pull out just like the rest. heres a link that i followed for some help scroll down till you find that part !! Good luck and i wana see pics !!! https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...r+trim+removal

Just a little heads up... if you have ever put any dressing on the dash such as Armour All or the like, tape will not stick! Use rubber cement to get into nooks and crannies...

Thanks! but it's not really all that great of a job up close and you can see the mistakes at angles . The paint color is an Excellent match to the OEM! but I am just not that great at painting

i love the pedals
a white accent would go awesome with the interior to match the outside

i got a local paint shop to make up the paint off of thepaint codes for the rs1.0 rs2.0 and now the rs3.0 and they put it in some aerosole cans for me... but i wanna get an airbrush so i can have alittle more fun... the picture does look alittle bright ... i will try and see if i can get another picture thats better since i replaced the oven again with a gauge setup instead of the xA smbol now... thanks for the coments though... and yea i know its alittle more than what everyone else is doing but.... i want more

USAW, I must warn you....the reason I did my doors in leather was because my knee had rubbed the silver paint off...so, check how you sit when you drive, if your knee touches the door, I wouldn't paint it....
