Dash Top

Don't waste your money, ethelred. It's a dead easy job, just slightly fiddly (as Ron says). A few screws to dislodge the instrument panel and pull it backwards, then a number of nuts under the dashpad itself. I removed mine a few weeks back to clean out 15 years worth of dead bugs lodged between the dash and windscreen, and the whole job (out, clean, in) took about 30 minutes.
 
As Warren says 30 minutes max to do a removal and refit. Even me who I consider to be terminally lazy have no anxiety's about doing this job, it's not to fiddley a job, just a bunch of small nuts unscrew.

The first does in no way whatsoever preclude the second.

Don't I f**king know it. Just about every time a "professional" touches my car I end up with a new problem to fix, the latest being the front nearside park light lens. I'd actually go so far as to say that, in matters of trim removal and replacement, ethelred will almost certainly be better off to do it himself. Much less likely to end up with something broken.
 
Ah, but I suspect the professional might be the wizard of Rudyard Lake, so it will be loved as well as refurbished :LOL:

Oh for a Wizard on this side of the world.

I had to warn him that the Rover P6 has a cult following in Australia and New Zealand otherwise he might already have fled.

Luckily this is the A523 not the Yellow Brick Road and he found my bike so uncomfortable he didn't go far after he fixed it for and he carried on with the main business of assembling a Series 2 3500 with a significant amount of Series 1 3500 bits, which is nowhere near as straightforward as one might think.
