Need a two piece dash insert...

Post by offshorematt » Sat Apr 22, 2006 8:59 pm

Decided to keep the stereo in the dash full time now, so I'm looking for the left and middle dash inserts for an S1 dash rather than the one piece one I've got currently. Anbody got a spare set they want to sell? Unsurprisingly Lotus are asking stupid money for a piece of dumb plastic... :roll:

And whilst I'm asking does anyone have any spare 'anti-rattle retaining clips' - the little bent metal clips that slide under the top dash panel and fix it in place? I lost mine last time I was behind the dash and Lotus want £8 a pop for them!!! :shock:

Aint the clips sliding around in the chassis? Think I read there are holes under the soap dishes (coin trays) that allow you to get into the chassis to find them?!

You're right, they have gone down the holes into the sills but I've never heard them again. May try and see if I can find them but it seemed easier to source new ones - till I found out the little bu**gers were £8 each. For £24, I'll have a look see... :wink:
