Michael,
The old bounce test is a pretty reliable indicator of shock function. Push the nose of the car down several times and if it rebounds more than one and a half times shocks probably need attention.
Topping off the fronts is fairly straight forward. Remove the valve and add.
I switched to tube front shocks as mine originals were shot and didn't respond to additional fluid. I/m very satisfied with the new set up. Set me back about $300 from Winners Circle in Cleveland.
To my embarrassment I have never touched the rear shocks. They seem to be OK and if it ain't broke I try not to fix it.
Most dash cover I' seen are rigid covers so wrinkling shouldn/t be a problem.
