Hello
I have a 2001 Cadillac Deville and the padded dash cover curling up in the middle and on the ends. Can this be replaced and if so where can I purchase and how do I remove the old one?

Thank you for your help

You could get a new one at a dealer, cost over $500 I believe. Possibly a salvage yard, if it hasn't been destroyed by airbag deployment, and the color is correct. I have repaired them with some good glue and clamps and stuff. to get it out, the dash vent deflectors and the defroster grille need removed, there are screws under each vent, and three across the top. Lift to disengage the clips at the cluster bezel, and remove both a-pillar trim pieces.
