Re: dash bolts



I dislike "me, too" statements but I want to reinforce Bill's comments.  Yes, it is a PITA to R&R those half dozen or so tiny screws with the Windshield in but the cost and risk of doing it with the R&R of the windshield make it worth the PITA tedious way with the windshield in place. I've done it both ways and will always do it with the windshield in place if I need to. You can put the dash back in an hour.

Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.  I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic.  Thanks!
