Toyota Silver Dash Kit
I decided to upgrade my dash by purchasing the genuine Toyota Dash Kit in Silver. This color matches the factory silver center console perfectly. The kit also comes in Carbon Fibre from Toyota as well.
The Toyota part number for the Dash Kit in Silver is C0048-52016-AS (and can also be ordered in Carbon Fibre). The kit comes with 7 pieces. -driver side door control overlay -driver side cup holder overlay -driver side heater vent overlay -passenger side door control overlay -passenger side cup holder overlay -passenger side heater vent overlay -gear shifter bezel overlay The kit is easily applied using the pre-attached 3M double-sided automotive tape. The plastic overlays are a perfect fit and smooth cut to fit over the various parts. Installation took about 30 minutes, because you have to clean the dash first. *** Note the contradiction by Toyota when they tell you NOT to use alcohol to clean your dash, but then include alcohol prep pads to do the work!!! *** Here is what is included in the kit...

I guess these just cover what is there and not actual replacement pieces...correct? Hence the tape,,,,duh.
Interesting to all the folks using Armor All.....read the warning from Toyota. Interesting. Check the size of your pics...think maybe they are to large for posting |

Yes, they just stick on (hate that term, because these are essentially permanent). You don't have to remove or unsnap any of the original components.

And yes... funny how they bash Armor All, and pimp Pledge (of all things... furniture polish???). I am sketchy about Armor All anyhow; that stuff is way too shiny.

You know that really does look okay. How does it match up with the plate covering the radio and air/heat controls?
Also, you got a price on these and the carbon fibers? |

Wow, how much for the silver kit then? Would any of you Canadian members be willing to purchase and then ship a set to a US member (after receiving proper amount of money for the kit + shipping)?

Just thinking aloud, but couldn't you get the same affect by painting the pieces to the color of your choice?

The dash is impressively easier to pull apart than you might think. As far as paint you wouldn't have to get too fancy of paint. But vinyl dye isn't that bad of an idea, I've done it a couple of times with my struggles in the RC world, but dying something that large would be a PITA. There used to be a guy on here that did water screens. That would be the ultimate in luxury.

Anyone still wanting these kits just PM me.
US drivers, keep in mind my kit was for a 5-door model 2008 in Canada. I am not sure if 2009 and 2010 models (which was the first time 5-doors came to the USA) in the US have the same door and window controls. I also know 5-door hatchbacks were not available in the US until last year. So be wary of the fitting and location of your door and window controls. |

Part numbers for Genuine Toyota 5-door hatchback dashkits, 2008 (works for 2007 and 2006 too) are:
Dash Kit Carbon Fibre: C0048-52016-CF Dash Kit Silver: C0048-52016-AS I can ask about 3-door models. I imagine the kits are only for vehicles with power windows and power door options. The basic Yaris with winding windows (I think thats what's equiped?) and manual locks, probably doesn't have a dash kit. Please let me know if there is any interest. |
