Glovebox trim surround

Post by cococola »

As standard my Moggie glovebox plastic trim surround has gone all brittle and I wonder what trim replacement ideas are out there or would it be another like for like replacement.

I recently did the same and after learning from the wise folk on this forum I immersed the new plastic trim in hot water for a while to make it more flexible. It’s hard to get around the curves of the glovebox so start and end the trim on the vertical straight section of the glovebox. I don’t know if this is the correct start and end point but after a lot of cursing it worked for me and looks OK.. Good luck with the fitting.

I did wonder if the trim needed softening up for those curves especially the bottom tight corner :-?
