    Hi Gang,

    I finished removal of all the interior sticky parts. The difficult pieces to remove are as follows:

    1. Passenger Door Handle - you need to remove the entire door panel to access ONE screw that holds the top part in. A bit of labor, but an easy task

    2. Removal of the Steering Column surround pieces. Really tough and you don't want to break it. My son made and edited a video of this process. You can find it here:

    Feel free to share the video and add it to the appropriate threads.

    Thanks,

    Very nice, Bruno :) I think Jay mentioned to me removing another fastener that allows the column to drop more - perhaps he will chime in.

    Look forward to seeing you in a couple weeks :)

    Questions about this process come up regularly. Great instructional video. Thanks Bruno!

    Moderators, you need to add this to the above DIY and Technical threads!

    Excellent video! There is a strap that limits the column tilt function that can be loosened in order to allow the column to drop further to aid in the removal (additional clearance) of the top clam shell, the strap is a solid bar of aluminum on the drivers side of the column with two 8mm bolts, remove the front and loosen the rear.

    Great Video Bruno, I would add, that some masking or packing tape on the dash facia would help to not damage the paint, which is very fragile.

    Dr. Bruno: the video doesn't seem to be set up for sharing. Is there any chance that your son can share this video again? Thank you.

    Thank you for the vent removal video, but can you provide the steering column surround removal video? The removal seems pretty straight forward, but I'm interested in any information that would help me prevent any damage to the fragile surround.

    Trying to locate it all. My son posted it on his Youtube which he subsequently deleted. I hope he can find a copy. Stay tuned.
