Default WTD: 'Celebration' style wood trim for 940
I'm after a set of the faux wooden trims from a RHD Celebration model -

2x dashboard switch panels
1x front ashtray
1x rear ashtray
4x door inserts

Needs to be as near mint condition as possible

Thanks as always

To be honest, I'm also after a set of these - just never got around to putting it out there - thought I would be cheeky and piggy back this thread

I would be colour coding the wood trim so condition is relatively unimportant as long as it's not fubared.

What do you mean by colour coding it Kelv? It isn't real wood it is plastic that appears to be lacquered so if you put dye or anything on it you aren't going to stain the "wood" you will just end up with a mess on top of the lacquer.

It's okay, I did the same thing on my old 406s trims.
A gentle rub down and some plastic primer works okay.

I'll be colour coding them to match either the wheels, or the car - undecided yet.

I'll look on eBay.

No longer required due to a (drastic!) change of plans thanks.
