<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91459>For reference,
what I did...</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91460>1) Removed
original covering and tacks. </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91460>(NOT easy.
Small clipper pliers to lift tack edges, followed by bent nose.)</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>2) Purchased

<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>3) Removed wood
from NEW dash grab handle to match the rounded shape of original dash via
sanding. (YMMV: in my case, the Prestige shape was too square)</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>4) Cut and
Shaped new wood piece to match original. </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>(Removing the
original piece was requiring more torque than I felt comfortable with)</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>5) Stained
new wood piece to match original. ("DD, who's going to see this?" I will
know...)</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>6)

<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>7) Sanded
to smooth transition.</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>8) Contact
cement of vinyl covering to entire assembly.</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr id=yiv5934011805yui_3_16_0_1_1429652986839_91462>9) Tap
holes for tacks, with light hammer on awl.</DIV>
