FHC resto nr. 159; More interior refurbishing

Last weekend I started on cleaning and refurbishing several of the (hard) plastic interior parts. And that’s where I continued this weekend. Starting with the finished results from previous weekend:

Console insert XKC541, facia switch panel RKC4660, which both used to be light grey,
and the carpet protectors (which don’t appear in my parts manuals).

Early grill moulding XKC291.

Centre console WKC531, which also used to be light grey.

Next on the to do list was a thorough clean of the centre console’s armrest (WKC541) and repairing a typical cracked mounting hole at the back of the armrest. I will probably make a pair of steel plates to go behind the mounting screws head, to spread the load better and prevent future damage in this area;




Clearly visible is a discoloured area on the side of the armrest that couldn’t be removed with the normal cleaning fluids. But the Jet Black Vinylkote covered that quite nicely. As it did with all other areas of this part.




Dashboard switches next.
