    those are the pictures I took right after cleaning them up
    its not the best product you can get for your money really.
    Turtle wax does a much better job, and it comes with a sanding pad. the only downpoint in gettin the turtlewax kit is that you have to do the sanding by yourself, which I would have prefered, but couldnt find any.
    If you cant find such kit locally, order one online, they're like 15bucks

    Finally painted my newly acquired blue mirror with plastidip!


    Also did the central console bezel and cup holder


    Thank you hatchkitten for the idea! turned out great!

    are you serious?? cuz if you are, then you're wrong... just saying. You don't need to remove that at all.

    the radio surroud is attached to the HVAC (a/c controls) with screws that are unaccessible
    In order to remove the radio surroud you need to disconnect the temperature and fan direction cables, which are located under the steering wheel and behind the glove box
