Title: Par number for plastic trim around fuel release button
Post by: lukemk5gti on March 20, 2017, 09:19:19 am
I've to take my door skin off to fit a new locking switch so while I'm at it I'd like to replace the plastic trim around the fuel button.

Does anyone have the part or even the part number?

It's part of the whole panel, can't be purchased separately

 :signLOL: Drop me a PM Luke, guess what i've got in the shed  :wink:

As Si says, it's part of the door card, i have a spare from doing the boot pop switch mod, as per Si's how to, requires a bit of chopping

We're not having anymore dealings  :signLOL:

I'm convinced your shed is a small lot of cars for scrapping at this stage!

I think if it requires chopping and cutting I might leave it.... What do you think?

Will your one fit in handy enough and is it in good condition?

Looks in good condition, how is it secured back in place since it was sawed off?

You secure it as in the how to, melt it back in place with a soldering iron, i also used hot glue just be safe. It's pretty intuitive and straight forward once you get going
