yes you will need to take the dash piece off to wire vent haloz. but it takes less than 10minutes to remove dash if your good.

and search for painting interior DIY. Myself, The_Alpha_Male (whatever ahppened to him...),and others have all posted tips on painting the dash/interior.

But I suggest getting a real paintjob like Mad_john said, it's the only way to get your paint job looking flawless AND have it last long. It's sorta like ceramic coating plactic (not somilar in process but the final look is similar).
