Centre Panel Yaris Sedan

[dngz]

Does anybody know if there is anything to change the centre panel for the sedan? Ive got a black car and black interior and the silver panel doesnt really suit my "black" theme. Carbon Fibre would look pretty cool too

Just paint it flat or satin black!! Easy as that!

You can use some flexible self-adhesive vinyl with fake carbon fiber design also...

[riceboy]

Yup... what he said.... the paint will probably work best..

[dngz]

Imma nub.. what kinda paint do I use and where could i find it? I gotta take apart my centre console to paint it right? Im thinking of putting the Eclipse AVN 5435 but thats gonna leave a 1/2 cm gap on both sides! What can i use to fill the gap and does anybody kno how to do it??

[dngz]

OH yea! about the self adhesive, I asked a guy who was selling some of that stuff and he said not to use it cuz the plastic and the moulding will make the stuff hard to stick to. He said its like trying to stick a sticker onto uneven surface, youll get bumps and folds.

First lightly sand any parts being painted with 800 grit sand paper
Next clean it with a painting prep cloth or good ol soap and water to remove any oils or grease.
before you paint, use an adhesion promoter first then apply your paint.
Done properly you can get top quality paint results that are very durable for very little $$$

i have a feeling he's talking about a 2-din unit with a 7" screen. there are no 2-din dash kits yet (that i know of). just a 1-din.

but i may be wrong...

metra has a double din kit, already ordered one from them, just waiting for it to arive :)

oh. i didn't see that in the threads (that i even suscribed to :redface: ).

so i was wrong. lol.

[dngz]

double din kit? im looking for a single cuz its not a motorize screen. its like a 6.5" screen and buttons on the side

[johnnyfive]

double din means, twice the size of a din(normal aftermarket radio)

if you have a big screen that dosnt slide out, you want a double din kit :)

[dngz]

Ooooo..... hahaha imma nub

[dngz]

Completed!! Herez how it looks!

[SimmZ]

WOW!!!!! That's the most wonderfull dash panel I ever see into a Yaris!

Flat black is THE right way to go!!!

dngz - what pedals and shifter are you using? also what did you replace the stock stock shift boot with????

Looks real nice!!!

[dngz]

Thanks!! Pedals = RAZO GT Spec Carbon Fibre Sports Peds, shifter = RAZO RA64 (Dark Chrome 200g) both bought off ebay from "shopresponse". Also its a stock shift boot! it moves up and down cuz i replaced the shift knob but im hoping that it will fix itself once i get the twm short shifter =)!!

[riceboy]

[dngz]
