Gear stick gaitor 'mount' broken

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure what to look for to get a replacement part. I was changing my gear stick gaiter and the 'mount' that the gaiter is stapled into, that clips into the trim to keep the gaiter in place has broken one of the clips off it.
Anyone know what this part is called or where I can get a spare?
Thanks!

Happened to me when I changed my gator. I lifted out the whole centre console and with two small screws screwed it into the console. Worked well

@fairm010 haha that sounds like a lot of work? I was hoping for a quick fix!

 

[fairm010]

It took 5 minutes tops mate.

Amazing, maybe I'm misunderstanding where you placed the screws. Don't support you have a photo?

Lift out cup holder section. Undo gear gator cable tie. Separate the console from the car under the foot wells. Pull towards the rear of the car and it will lift out gradually.

I don't I'm afraid. I can sort you a guide out tomorrow?

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Only if its not too much trouble! I'm a bit of a noob at dismantling the car; or should I say putting it all back together!

 

[fairm010]

Nah shouldn't take long. So am I, you've just gotta have the confidence to try. If you f**k it up, oh well!

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Haha touché

Or just put a selftapper in the spot the broken off tab was......that's what i fid

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Self tapper through the plastic mount on an angle?
And how did you guys get the new gaiter to fit to the plastic mount? Re-staple it in there?

 

[fairm010]

Haha good luck re stapling it. I just used some strong glue

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Gorilla glue?

 

[fairm010]

Come to think of it, it was actually!

 

[bozothenutter]

I never unstapled it...

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Ah yah I'm trying to replace the whole gaiter to one with red stitching, so have to unstaple the old one
