Instrument Panel Cover

Im not sure if thats what it is called. Its the piece that surrounds the radio, ashtray, and the heater controls. I cant find it anywhere. I searched 7 junk yards, and searched online for hours. Can anyone help?

Re: Instrument Panel Cover

Most call it a radio trim bezel. What year do you have?

Re: Instrument Panel Cover

Re: Instrument Panel Cover

Keep looking and try other words like swift, metro, firefly and try simplest searches. Some times, people have cars than want to tear apart to sell the parts and you have just to ask for something.

I had buy many parts in this way.

Hope you find the part you need soon.

MC.

Re: Instrument Panel Cover

Ok I'll do that. I hope I find it soon also. I want to get it back to the way I had it when I bought it cuz I'm selling it when it gets nicer.

if you get Crvett's bezel, just stick a little bit of epoxy or funtack or chewing gum or something in where the crack is. My bezel cracked and completely fell apart...I had to make a new plate out of wood for my radio (and later i made one out of sheet steel b/c the wood just looked bad in that car).
Ok, i realize chewed gum is gross, but maybe you can find something less gross to use...hell...silly putty will do the trick...just keep it from cracking more.
