Little dash panel

Hello all

Anyone know how much the dash panel is from toyota? I mean just the little one around the gear stick. Or i could just get my whole dash sprayed

Whats wrong with the one you have on the now?
Is the rubber type surface all scored?

Mine was £77.05 for the trim, £23.54 for the ash tray itself.

Just to warn you though mine was made of a slightly different texture material than the old easily marked cr*p. It doesn't really show though and it is tougher than the old stuff.

PS - that was without any members club discount and without VAT too.

Mine is scored to death but the rest of the dash is fine. just wondering if it would be cheaper to buy a new one rather than getting the whole dash sprayed.

The auto one is a lot cheaper as the manual one includes a new gaitor. Is your's manual or auto Col?

This is definitely one of the times when i'd get new, unless you're spraying and are happy with that route, as the chance of getting a decent condition one second-hand is very small IMO.

I've replaced the trim, ashtray and gear-knob and it's really made a difference. Once more serious work is done i'll probably do the rest, just to get rid of that horrible soft-touch rubbish. The newer stuff is far more robust.

Why don't you spray all the dash it comes up well with the right prep work

I have a manual, hmmm what to do. I like the sound of getting a new one if it has a different finish. I just know if i get it sprayed i will end up with run marks, just like my spoiler
