Help Please
« on: 03 April 2008, 23:05 »
I just ordered an aluminium trim for my golf, thing is. Where the left side trim slides on, on the radio cage, the clips that hold it in place have snapped off, is there anyway to fix this without replacing the whole cage, should i just use glue?
Also, how do i remove the trim on the cupholders, ashtray and also the handbrake cover?

Thanks for reading  :wink:
