Interior trim challenge

[Big Orange 90]

Hi all

I am in the process of restoring my ‘97 90 300tdi and wonder if you could help? I’m looking to source a new dash trim panel I think part number is MTC4617LDQ

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks Western do you know if they made these in black?

I don't think I ever seen a black one, but it would be easy to change with suitable paint for plastic.

They were only made in that insipid great that doesn’t match any of the other trim in the car, but they take paint well.  I just used satin black acrylic from an auto factors, and it has been fine for over a decade.  If you want to be certain and don’t mind spending a bit more on the paint, then Buzzweld “PIO” or Plastic In One is tough stuff and guaranteed to stick without priming, but I didn’t use primer either, just a can of Halfords satin black after a good scrubbing with washing up solution.
