  • Dash trim bora

    Hi all,

    I took the trims off around the radio/climate control the other day and I appear to have broken the mounting points for the vertical pieces. Ive had to blu-tac them on for the moment. Just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem and if so is there any way to fix it without replacing the cage?

    Same problem here. The plastic bits that hold the metal pins break off
    No solution that I know of.

      iv broken the clamps too.
      think it requires gluing or fixing the trim as you have done, or a whole new surround

          I found this
          Volkswagen Jetta IV VR6 24v > Interior > Trim > ES#311608 Radio Trim Cage - Black - 1J1858069M2AQ

          but the trims are only in black which i dont want. im hoping for brushed alloy but i dont want to pay 1500 for the set from ecs.

            The console is angled, so you might face RHD/LHD issues ordering from ECS.

              Yeah thanks for the tip, i was just using that as an example of the part.
              Do you guys know of any Aus based ECS type sites?
