bayside_supra Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hi guys I bought this as my current one has a screw hole broken. These are all intact but it is the wrong one, must be for a facelift version or something as mine has the mileage reset buttons on it and this one doesn't. Excellent condition. £30 plus p&p or collection from Hemel Hempstead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitch79 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'll take it [emoji1360] Posted mind. As long as it's def facelift? Is it the grey facelift colour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassbones Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I did a successful fix on a broken screwhole in this dash piece. Get some of this .. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007NVYCNU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 use a bit of foil to shape a dome (using an undamaged hole as a mould), paste the plexi filler on the opposite side (shaped roughly like an undamaged one). When dry get your electric drill out and make a suitable hole. When I screwed this piece back on the dash the plexi filler bit came away in one piece, so I used gorilla glue to fix it back in place and its now perfect! Let me guess ... the broken hole was the one on the extreme left as you look at it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burna Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I repaired mine too. Bought an old tatty top dash piece of a fellow member, and then cut off the bits I needed, shaped both parts, and glued in place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassbones Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 A better but possibly more expensive option? Depends on the price of the tatty dash piece I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 A better but possibly more expensive option? Depends on the price of the tatty dash piece I guess? I only paid about a tenner I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassbones Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Wow!!! That's a steal. I only paid about a tenner I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Wow!!! That's a steal. I think it was priced right, it was scuffed and needed a repaint, but as you see I didn't need it for that, all I wanted was to cut the screw pockets off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassbones Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Yeah. I see you went mad with the draught excluder as well! Lol Do you get bad idle vib same as me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Yeah. I see you went mad with the draught excluder as well! Lol Do you get bad idle vib same as me? Lol That's been there since I bought the car in 2004, I wasn't sure if it was a Toyota thing tbh. Never had a vibration on idle, but it did use to start to vibrate from over 120 to over 170, but that was due to only two screws in it, and then Ibrar balancing the rear wheels properly for me. The rears had a mass of weights in one spot! Ibrar balanced the wheels with hardly any weight in the end, God knows what muppets had done before!? No vibrations since Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassbones Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Good work mate. I'm hoping putting a stock exhaust on mine will rid me of the vib. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
