I wouldn't say it's metal-like at all, just silver. My Cobalt is similar, albeit just flat-silver. And that matches the stitching and center mesh inserts on my front Recaros, so I wouldn't want to do white to match the exterior. On the Cruze I think BGM might be a bit too much black on the inside, since it has all the other piano black as well (which is definitely why it's silver to start with).
I like how the Buick approached it. Looks mature but fun interior wise. However the HVAC and radio of the Buick suck vs the Chevy. I’d also want to toss those stupid fake chrome rings around the cluster out. The silver to me gets scratched too easily.
Nice! Here's how to take apart the shifter knob to get the last piece. I can't vouch for the instructions as I have a manual, but it seems fairly straightforward (apart from the just twist and pull up, that never works for me).

Tell us more about the dash.
Did you document the brake cable replacement process? I am looking at this as well.
Gremlins!My wife drove it for the first time since we got it back a couple weeks ago - she almost ended up in the front lawn because she's now not used to a vehicle that has a backup camera haha. But now that it's not blocked in by the Buick, she can drive it again.
Apparently I forgot to post that I changed it over to the winter tires on the 26th:
View attachment 295446
RF tire was, oddly, down to like 10psi when I pulled them out of the basement (the other three tires were still around 40psi)...no visible holes, no audible leaks...filled it and the three other tires up to 46.5psi like normal and watched. A couple days later, the other three tires (which had more warm air from being in the basement vs the RF tire which had a lot more cold air from the compressor in the garage) were sitting around 42 psi, and the RF was down to 38.5psi.
I checked a few days back and...the RF went up to 41.5 psi. And as of last night, per the TPMS sensors, all four tires are basically the same.
I...have no idea what happened there.
I can... minus the console removal, as I've only got that far lol. And from what I can feel the ends of the casing for the parking brake cables back against the floor pan where they come out of.
I have not yet written or published it yet, but I have documented the removal and replacement of the center console. I have just not had the time to write it up yet. So there is no issue with skipping that part and documenting the rest. I for one would definitely be interested in that.
Well I went and bought a Samsung tab7 there's this app like no other app I've ever seen called RealDash you can literally tap in to every single computer function in your car with the right tool of course I have hptuners so I'm into every sensor ,bcm ,ecm ,tcm , also have connection to the can-bus system still learning all about that but I'm able to roll all my windows down at once or individually kind of a pointless thing considering the window controls are right on my door but still cool the app has so many features such as a dyno which I believe I posted some results on here a while ago that were quite unbelievable to some I think you were one of them basically went back to my stock tune not completely but took off most of the performance besides the tune for the bigger fuel injectors and gear ratios and zzp Turbo I made a 191hp/221ftlbs tq on a mostly stock tune and was also running vp racing fuels suggested race fuel but using hp tuners on the real dash app seems very accurate in the data it pulls for a dyno run without a laptop and just on my I would call it a heavily hacked and modified tablet don't use a iPad for this kind of stuff Apple leaves no room for developer mode and customization.. sorry I seemed to drift way off topic here lol ok so stock radio gave out on my well truth be told I fried it with my sound system so that's where my digital dash sits it lays sideways and is attached with velcro for now at least because it's a pain to reach out to it. I really want that cockpit feel to my seat and want the tab to be right above cup holders but theres the e brake that's there as well as the shifter knob I have an automatic but shift in manual mode one of my favorite things about the cruze is that it won't shift unless I want it too!! other automatic cars will shift automatically even if your driving in manual mode if your rpms go above a certain point pointless m mode anyways I'll reply again with screen shots of my custom dashboard I've made
Did you end up replacing heater core?
