C4 Grand Picasso - replacement dash console parts

woppi · 30-04-2018 09:35AM #1

The control buttons for fan, a/c, etc on my 2009 C4 Grand Picasso VTR+ are worn. See picture below. What are these parts called and where can I get a 2nd hand replacement? As in, should I do the rounds with the breakers yards, or just go online?

Thanks in advance.

I'd try Copart or any other large breakers in the UK.

Try the likes of http://partfinder.ie or just ring a few local breakers

They all seem to go that way on c4 Picasso.

Just curious. If he got a fresh one could he put some touch up lacquer on (the kind you paint with a brush).
Sure the buttons will look a bit glossy then but if it prevents the white it may be better?

I was thinking of the same but have never heard of anyone actually doing that. Is it a tried and trusted technique?

You might get it cheaper in a breaker's yard, but there's this:

I have no idea. Just a suggestion I thought of but never heard of anyone doing it

I am a sad old git but I replaced ours with one from ebay. Before fitting it a covered each button in matt clear contact. Used a scalpel to trim around each button. Took about an hour.

I can be a bit picky about such things apparently.

I'd be the exact same tbh :pac:

Once reason I said use lacquer is because I assume its a lot easier and quicker to apply.
Having said that I also have no idea what the finished product would look like either though
