Thread: Speedo Dash Clips

There should be two screws behind the steering wheel/column the hold the instrument binnacle cover in place. The plastic is fairly fragile and the recessed holes the screws bear down on can fracture.
Mine were gone completely so I just painted 2 longer screws and 2 washers black and screwed it down, now the screws are exposed, it looks factory unless you know better.

Thanks Geedublya,

I actually have a family friend who just told me he called Discovery Automotives and they told him the same thing.

But thanks anyway.

gonna have to have a look at that and fix it up.

you wouldnt happen to know also how to fix the cup holder in the front as it isnt springing out nicely as it should be, i no these things arnt big fixes like suspension etc. but i like to have the interior nice aswell.

thanks again.

Hi Dan+Z,
My instrument cover was also getting looser & finally let go last week.
I removed the two screws near steering wheel & lifted off cover. It was obvious that the plastic that clips lock into had cracked from the Aussie heat. I simply glued the broken plastic back into place with Devcon metal epoxy (it sets like steel) & liberally coated the whole area with the epoxy to reinforce it. After epoxy set I clipped cover back into place & good as new.
Cheers..B
