All i used was VHT (very high temp) paint in a can from repco and painted them the colour match is not perfect but its close enough for me

As they say, the search button is your friend.

2 screws either side of cigarette lighter and a couple clips hold the section that goes around ur gear knob or shifter.
You gotta give it abit of lovin to get it off as the power window stitch box will catch on the rest of the console.
Next the annoying flip open box thing, 2 screw on either side...
The stock headunit needs to come out if u still have that...

Now the main bit.
Open fuse panel, screws either side of the steering column, 2 above the dash gauges and i think thats it...

Couple clips hold it in so some gentle lovin n it could pop...

Now ur dash cherry has been popped!
Haha, gentle lovin n pop...

Later

What about the back piece on the centre console with the air vents, how does it come out ?

It just unclips there are a series of clips along the top and bottom and then the back white bit comes off and then you remove the black fascia bit and ready to paint
