Must be in good order, all tabs intact etc. Anyone have one they are willing to part with?

 

Yeah right buddy...

GL finding one though!

 

You're probably right so I just bought a brand new one. Wife says I don't have any patience,

 

I just sold one of these on ebay for $6 used

 

I need one as well... anyone have one for sale?

 

If you check in the Members For-Sale forum, Paddock Motorsports in Haverstraw, NY has been selling his remaining parts...he had several of them 2 weeks ago when I was there.

 

I saw that piece on Pelican Parts. It was only around $40.

 

How do you keep the tab near the AC controls from breaking??
I've had two and they both break right there. And you can't glue them.

 

i have three or four of these- i'll check the conditions.

 

Thanks,please let me know if you have a good one for sale

 

Dan, I'm looking for one as well.

 

Who says you can't glue them?

I think they break because someone tries to remove it without loosening the A/C panel first. The clock piece doesn't really like to slide sideways to release the tab, so they horse on it to get it out - hello broken tab.

Mine had a broken tab, and I needed to replace the clock backlight bulb anyway, so I removed the piece, ground it down with a Dremel, and used JB Weld to glue in a piece cut from the spine of a CD jewel case.

To ensure a good join, I drilled some holes through the repair piece and into the clock panel first, and packed the glue in. I used the same Dremel tool to grind it flat afterwards.

After I trimmed it to an appropriate length with a Dremel cut-off wheel, it went back in perfectly.

 

I have purchased two or three of these pieces used. They all break. I am **** about being careful taking them apart. They just broke over time. Purchased a new one from Ian (944online.com). Will see how that goes.

 

I don't see how they would just break without someone messing with them...

 

25 year old Porsche plastic - I would never buy one of these or the sunroof hinges or sunvisor hinges used. If they aren't broken already they will be soon! They just get brittle...
