I've done this -- takes a lot of time to pull all the clear plastic off, then scuff all the "chrome" tape off, then mask and tape, tape and mask...but I really liked the way mine came out.

By the way, did I mention you'll spend a lot of time masking and taping?

Well I didn't do it today but I replaced my center caps, lugs and tires last week. Summit supplied center caps and lugs from Gorilla. Copper Cobra 255/70-15.

Had to replace the blower motor.
It's been giving me trouble for months and finally gave up the ghost.

If you don't have the noise reducing cover on it isn't to bad.
I had to remove the ECM to get that off.
It's kind of a pain to get it past the dash. You have to turn it and then pull real hard to get it past the lower dash.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??

lokitruck, here is a post of mine where I took my blower motor out. Look at the pics; it's all in how you turn it. This is good for 88-94 dash.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??

So I'm a little challenged when it comes to time... and I felt guilty so a took some really terrible pics of the monitor for you. It's dark and my phone is definitely not a real camera, but here you go.
