Just try to enjoy the process.
The end results are usually great so if you aren't on a tight schedule, don't cut any corners (nearly every step has a corner you can cut).
Shortcuts don't end well with this job.
When you get it looking right, the time taken is quickly forgotten.
Quoted from lukerp:Based upon the video, the wet mood appears reasonable. However, it appears I need a wife who's in the second trimester? That's going to add some time onto the project...
In all seriousness, thanks for the help. I'll let people know how it goes.

I used the dry method and followed the video by Tattyadams..... Worked very well.
Quoted from NM:I'd be a nervous wreck trying to bull’s-eye a start button doing a cabinet dry.
Would love to see a video that makes it look easy.
I'd still be freakin' though.
The coin door is the key decal to get right. I shine a strong light from inside the cab to line it up. Seemed to work very well for me.
Quoted from McCune:Just like Bryan does . I have done the light thing too but results can very depending on light angle and shadows. The impression method is spot on.
Good tip.
The light I use is a circular fluorescent - the one that board repair guys use. It seems to put out a very diffuse light - maybe it helps??
