Ok instead of hijacking the thread I did this.

I got Brushed aluminum.

I would like some black interior trim pieces. Kind of a Johny Cash All Black thing.

How hard is it to get this stuff off and trade it out?

I guess I am looking at the center dash (Know how to remove that)

Console

Steering wheel

Doors

Anybody ever removed this stuff before?

For removing the steering wheel buttons you need only remove and disconnect the airbag, then remove the via the screws under the airbag.

Hmm, I'm wanting to switch my black radio bezel, auto shifter console bezel, and door handles to silver, and I have black.... Perhaps a proposition is in order?

I tried the brushed shifter bezel for a while. It reflected the sun right back in my face, so I sold it on eBay.

Not to sure what year kj you have, but the area around the shifter just pops off and the trim around the stereo pops off after a single screw(in that little cuby hole) is taken out.

Im not to sure how the door handles and the piece on the door lock area comes off though.

Here's what I found as far as removing some pieces so far:

Radio Bezel, just looks like that cubby hole screw then pop and pull.

Door Handle, says how to pop panel off, but not sure if that includes removing the handle.

EDIT:

And it looks like the door handles might just only come off with the entire panel:

What year is your Lib, Woody?
