the (truly) hardest part is keeping glue off the suede parts that arent supposed have glue on them.. ie the visible part lol. its tuff to do.. you cant set it back down where you had set it last.. as glue may have touched the bench etc.. you can never tell.. its kind of a nightmare in that regard.. you HAVE to keep track of and mentally designate the backside/glue side hand and the smoothing clean hand.. its very easy to get this glue everywhere...
keep in mind the thickness of the material and as it rounds the back side of the piecdes, have a very sharp olfa blade to cut the folds and bulk out of whats glued to the backside.

thats about it.
If you royally screw up, slidegood sells the dash pieces for like 40 bucks.. not an issue.. buy another one.

Ok well first off that dash mat looks terrible and second you need to lay off the armor all/turtle wax high gloss crap! Nothing looks better/cleaner than matte/satin plastics.

Sorry for thread jacking, but ParanoidAndroid, when you coming out with the 4.2 AOSP Roms? jk

But naw, I wouldn't use them dash mats. It just looks too loose. Gotta keep things fresh n get some suede overlays if you want to do it right.

I've only seen people who are hardcore into car audio use these dash mats. What about wearing sunglasses to keep glare down?

The results are inconclusive - maybe I need to create a poll to get a better idea.
