    Peel back the door seals some to reveal the overlap.
    Open the sunroof and remove the front trim piece and reveal the overlap.
    Visor mount pieces.

    It looks like its just the visor pieces that go through, but I think theres more out there. Can you be more specific so Im not scratching my head halfway through

    you know... my mom doesnt either. maybe I was exaggerating a little

    Anyways... one other item that was high on the list was the deteriorating front headliner panel (is that what its called?). I managed to find a good looking one in Northern California, just a 'short' drive from my parents house so I bought it a few weeks back and elected for local pickup. The thought of a 40 year old panel being handled by underpaid transporters injected fear into what would arrive, so anyways while I was up in Central California for TurkeyDay I took a little afternoon trip to pick it up.



    Not perfect (are any of them perfect) but good enough for me to replace the ruined panel. I will be reinforcing these brittle areas before I install, but theres a few bad spots and some vinyl peeling back that all need attention first...



    I'm naively believing this will be an easy install.. Any installation tips?

    Meh, Prototipo are cool but everyone and their mamas got one...

    I have the center pad but the tiny little screws are missing... If I find em I might reinstall it.

    I like the oem steering wheel. I’m glad I saved my original steering wheels.

    Early sport wheel? is never cared about but I agree, it just works. I do like the formels when they center piece is on, that may change my mind.

    Before I left town for the week, I had to install the new, but nearly 43 year old steering wheel.

    Before:


    After:


    At some point, the wheel got covered by some alcantara which is now doing what old alcantara does so Im not sure how long I will leave it on... Might just take it off and reveal the old, tired leather.
