go ahead and rip all your buttons and switches and let us know how it works out or how much of it you cant get back together.

just accept it, its VIRTUALLY impossible. do not try it, you WILL break stuff.

It's almost impossible -- the real question is how much are you willing to pay to have it done correctly? If you can find a reputal shop that you trust then try it but it's not going to be cheap what so ever and I highly recommend that you don't attempt it yourself.

Change your dome light for starters if you haven't yet
