Where to find these dash inserts
« on: November 17, 2016, 14:38:15 »
Any idea where I might be able to find the dash inserts for hot/ cold/ arrows  on the attached photo I high jacked from ebay. I inherited a car that had the pieces re chromed but can't find the inserts. Thx Rob

Hello Rhinkel,

What you can also do is,
get a chrome dash insert from a W108. That's a 1-piece unit.
Cheep, plenty around and has all four arrow inserts you need.

After polishing you can sell off the 108 chorme piece again .... ??? 8)

Best,
