Porsche Dash Plastic
Does anyone know what type of plastic was used to cast the dash trim on the Porsche 944/968 models? I am referring to the trim pieces that go across the dash from one side to the other, holding switches the cigarette lighter and A/C controls for example.
I want to modify some of the pieces before painting to fill unwanted openings such as for the cigarette lighter and clock. For the work planned I need a good chemical bond and will need to use fillers to make the modifications "invisible" through the top coatings. Therefore I need to match the repair products to the OEM plastics. Odds are it is ABS, but Audi might have used some other harder plastic for those pieces to ensure stiffness and secure mounting for the items mentioned. I am hoping the plastic is one that lends to chemical or heat welding and will bond chemically with the appropriate plastic fillers. Otherwise, I cannot make the envisioned modifications. Any information, ideas or suggestions are appreciated! |
