THOR...Those little hex screws around the shifter boot are for decoration only and do not move. If you pop off the whole shifter plate there are some screws on the under side that remove the shift boot ring thingy. If you try to use any tool on those you will strip the soft plastic and leave some pretty strip marks. I hope you read this before you try it again!

Well thank you all for giving me somthing new and inexpensive to do with my tibby, I acutally think the new paint job will cover up some of those scrape marks i put in the dash the first time i tried to take it off. And maybe now i can find a way to fix my Temp Knob thing...

Hi guys I'm very interested in painting some of the interior parts of my Tib..however, I was hoping I could ask some of you who have done this before a few questions. Exactly what types of paint did you use for the job? I was planning on using some of the SEM paint, but I'm not sure what type of it I need for the best results (I will prolly go with white for the color). After you took the dash/door pieces off, did you prime it with anything at all? Or did you just start spraying it on? About how many of coats of the paint (and then the clear coat) did you have to apply to the parts? After the clear coat is on, is it easy to scratch or damage the paint once it is installed back in the car? I know white might get dirty easier, but I just don't want to have it full of scratches after a few months. Does anyone know how long a paint job like this will last in the car...having to redo the parts would be a huge pain, and after awhile it could start to look pretty messy I think. Sorry for all the questions, just trying to make sure if I do this, I get it right the first time. Thanks!
