    This is quite a process (looks like) and its hard to find a place that I can trust to do this kind of work at a reasonable price

    I need to remove that grill on mine too. I thought my stock dash speakers were blown, but it's actually that grill that vibrating making noise.

    I pulled off the binnacle today and that should be enough space for a auto trimmer to get in there and do some repairs on mine

    I've been told those pieces have to be removed and reupholstered. They cant just be repaired in place.

    Did you find someone that communicated otherwise? Would,be curious to learn more

    there are 2 Torx screws either side of the RPM dial up underneath.
    Then there are 3 clips that you will feel when you try and lift that section off. I grabbed the end of the binnacle section close down at the window and pulled up and it released.

    You should get the soft touch rubber buttons and knobs redone by Sticky RX while you have it all apart.
