tintinmt Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 One hinge on the centre console lid has failed. Has anyone done a repair like this? See pic. Cheers, M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Probably, But you can pick these up easy enough from breakers, Give Keron a call. After you've done that, clean your car lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Easy peasy fix. There are 2 metal rods, they loosen up and come out of the holes, if you have a small enough pliers you can pick at them and push them back in, unless that L shape plastic bit is busted. It might have fallen in the hole...if you can find it, araldite it back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tintinmt Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Thanks guys! The L shaped bit is busted so needs something to retain the metal rods. Its tempting to think there is a fix but probably involves removing the console and it may then easier to just replace the whole thing. And yes - it does need a bit of a clean afterwards!

tintinmt Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 OK, I have done the job with some Meccano! The interior of the console is a bit dirtier than I thought. 'still mucky even after a lot of elbow grease. Mind you - the lid works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
