Got my DaveB rings in. Any suggestions to install them, or any tips? As for taking the gauge cover off, is it just the 2 screws above the steering column that need to come off?

Washed, claybarred, and waxed it this morning. I took the rest of the adhesive off of three doors before loosing feeling in my hand. And I still have slightly visible stains from where the side moldings used to be--I'll need a more aggressive treatment for them after I regain control of my hand.

amsgator

that's why i didnt take mine off b/c i wasnt sure if i could get the stains off. if you get it off lmk how you did it plz

Yep, I'm jealous. But there's solace in the fact that I actually own my Mazda.

amsgator

I saw this probably too late, but when you pull out the first trim piece, just be really careful. I scratched the top of my steering column cover with the two plastic clips on the bottom of the trim piece. Now I have two little skid marks to remind me every day of my carelessness.

amsgator

well no squeely today so i am considering the problem fixed. woot.
