Title: Hi from Brisbane
Post by: DavidD on April 03, 2012, 23:39:08: Guys got a 2008 CRDI model. Love the engine (absolutley love the engine), had a few small issues with the trims, well the glue on the trims to be precise. Apart from that good runner.

Just had a slight problem, my wife has just broke the clasp (or latch / catch) off that 'locks or clamps' the centre console lid down to the base of the centre console. Just wondering if anyone knows were I can get the small plastic part - appears that I can remove it and replce by undoing a few screws under the base of the second layer under the centre console. I have been on a few websites for parts, but seem to be big items not small internal plastic things like i need. I reckon you I30 experts on here may be able to help!!!

My advice about replacing the broken clip would be to take it to your local dealer and order a replacement.

Moving away from Blackburn was the second smartest move you made :cool:

That plastic doodaa thing... if you still have the bits can't you just superglue them? Meh... maybe not. I think they stopped doing that centre console thing a while back, so a breakers might be your best bet as mentioned above :D

Now stop worrying and just ~~sell your wife~~ enjoy your i30 :goodjob:
