ive just started spraying parts of my dash but it looks crap i rubbed the plastic down with some wet and dry but now it looks really rough. also how do you get the fron part off the centre console to spray it its attatched to the vent thing at the rear but i cant shift it.

vents, gotta push them down somehow might have to prise it but for me i used the end of my screwdriver which was rubber, wacked it on the vents to get them down to reveal the screw at the back which holds the mfd down.

center console........slider bit remove the lil button then the slider surround bit to reveal 2 bolts

3 heter nobs
1st and 3rd jus pull off
middle one put it out and stick screwdriver up the lil hole to unclip it out,

whole center console shud then unclip from the top vent backin and bottom bit
