Wooden Dash
« on: 05 September 2009, 13:56 »
Well i've just managed to get hold of some bora sport interior bits to git rid of all the loverly wood in mine ...question is whats the easiest way of changing them ?..Is there a guide to this somewhere ?
I've managed to do the door handles , and i've got a new gear knob already its doing the rest that is confusing me ..di i have to take all the centre console out to do this ?...


Also at some point i want to change the stereo as well so would i be better off doing it all in one go , as i'm going for a single din size one , as i have one spare , so what else do i need for that as well ...?

Thanks ..

There is a how to in the maint section somewhere, but you don't have to remove the centre consol to do it, everthing just slides, unclips or is screwed on.

did you win it all off ebay?

side stips are the hardest ones, they pull off downwards BUT there is a clips holding them on. If you look at the small lugs on the back of the strips you are putting back on it will be the 2nd one from the top so you need a screwdriver to prise it off.

It will make sense if you can find a pic with the strips off

In that thread, with the part numbers is there a website you can order from or will you need to take them to a dealer?
