Plus 2 underdash trim

PostPost by: JonB » Thu Oct 24, 2019 8:26 pm

Thought I?d share some pictures of the underdash trim on my +2. The driver?s side trims are in bad shape. All the white plastic is cracked and the panels are a bit floppy. The means by which they are affixed is poorly thought out, it?s basically a factory bodge and I can improve on it. Here?s how.

Aluminium step bracket affixed to rear of dash. This prevents the crash pad sagging when the lower trim is fitted.


All this may or may not work. I?ll let you know.
