Has anyone installed one of those wood paneling kits for the dashboard, window controls, etc? I'm thinking of getting one in cherrywood for my 2005 liberty. If you've never done it before is it better to have it installed professionally or is it easy and I can do it myself?

THANKS

I personally don't have any applique kits on my Liberty.

To get good adhesion, you'll need to clean the plastic really well with some alcohol.

ebay? I wouldn't buy it. They look really cheap and fake.

Not a real good pic but you can see some of the applique kit I put on my KJ.Of course they are orange(not a perfect match but close enough),didn't think I would like them but I've gotten alot of good comments on them.They stuck real good,been on for 4 years now,but good cleaning is key.I got my kit from streetbeatcustoms.com but they don't have all the colors they used to anymore.I can get better pics if you want.

A little off topic here. Where did you get those seat covers? and are they neoprene?

I was thinking about trying an applique kit but I would like to see how it looks. If you can put up some more pics I would really appreciate it.
Thanks a ton!
