Hi all, I am after a replacement speedometer surround please, ideally in perfect condition, with no splits or fixings missing. It is the one WITHOUT the dash light brightness adjuster on the right hand side.

This is to replace the current one which is split in many places.

Thanks in advance.

You're looking for a mk1a dash surround then? Check eBay or cannot you not glue it?

Thanks for the reply. It's for a 1987 1b, when Toyota used a mix of a and b parts, so yes it'll be a 1a.

I did try to glue it but there were so many cracks in the four main screw holes and also cracks from where the headlamp and windscreen controls bolt on ,which have come through to the front face and look unsightly. The other reason is that there isn't much left of the fixings at the front bottom (ooerr missus) so it doesn't align properly with the outer section.

i think Mr Simms has one on ebay so will ask for confirmation of its condition.

This matches my old one with the blanked over hole on the inside left. The brightness adjuster would be on the right with white wording printed by the side of it for a 1b.
