MK1 MR2 dash parts

I have some dash parts from my (RIP) 1987 MR2.  Specifically, I have the flat square plastic thing that goes over the cluster, the plastic cluster surround thing with the wings that stick out for switches and a dash itself.  Is there any demand for these things?    They are starting to be in the way.  If anyone wants them, Free, You Pay Shipping.  No cracks in the plastic.  Dash was pretty clean when removed, no cracks.  Last I looked at it a few months ago it was still intact.  It would be a PITA and somewhat expensive to ship the dash due to its size.  The other 2 pieces wouldn't be too bad, they are bulky but not heavy. 

Ya'll have till next Monday, when they go in the trash.

Where are all the 3D printed C-pillar trim pieces that the internet promised?  Is it The Future yet?

In reply to Tyler H :

My guess is that some forum members somewhere complained that they would cost more than five bucks.

You got a headlight switch that works in all positions?

I'm interested in the dash depending on what shipping to San Antonio Texas would be.

Feel free to shoot me a pm.

Just the dash or the whole thing, dash and 2 big plastic parts?  I'll have to dig the dash out of the shed and check it over again.

Hopefully someone takes it.  I trashed half a MR2 a few years back and couldn't give parts away.  I had a complete, crack free '85 interior from my old race car build, and it all went to the dumpster.    I hated doing it but no longer had the room.  Hopefully your parts don't end up with the same fate.

Don't think I have that switch.  Probably eBay'ed it years ago.  I have one switch and it has a spring (momentary) position to the right, then three positions to the left.  I think it's for the windshield wiper.

In reply to Dr. Hess :

I just need the main dash part, my plastic bits are in good shape. Honestly even if it has a crack or two it would still be an improvement over mine 

In reply to mrpilot :

OK, I'll check it out later this week.  Last I looked at it, it was dirty and dusty, but otherwise straight/no cracks. 

Dug the dash out of the shed.  17 years of storage gave it one crack.  Here's the pics:

You want it?  I'll have to crate it up.  SWAG on the shipping would be in the $20-30 range.  It's a bit oversize.

In reply to Dr. Hess :

Yeah I'll take it, just let me know on the shipping hit and I can paypal you.

OK.  I'll get it boxed up and figgered.  I'll PM you when I know more.  Give me a little time on it if there is no rush.

There's no hurry

Dash is gone.  Hope you like it, Matt.

OK, looking in the box, I found the headlight switch.  Here's what I know about it:  There's a black ring behind a frame at the front of the switch.  I have no idea what that black ring does, but it is cracked where it goes on the shaft.  Dimmer?  Dunno.  I think it is repairable with some super glue and wrapping it with some very fine wire, then maybe some 5 minute epoxy.  Or, you could unscrew the front bridge piece and use the black ring from another switch.  This switch made the headlights come on 17 years ago, no problem.  The headlights were permanently propped in the Up position by the DPO because they let their daughter drive it in Houston and play bumper cars with it.  So, I have no idea if this switch will make the headlights pop up or not.  But, it did work the rest of the lighting circuits.  You want it, Jim?  Your's for shipping.

I also have the windshield wiper switch.

Yeah, I screwed up when I wrote before, that's what I get for doing several things at once.  I really meant the wiper switch.  Mine doesn't self-park or work on intermittent, which is very common for these.  How much do you want for it?

Shipping.  Give me a few days to box it up and get the shipping figgered.  Just got back from the PRC and I'm tired.

No hurry - info sent PM.  Cash OK?

JP

Sure, Jim, if you trust the post office.  This is the same USPS that the State of Arkansas Board of Medical Examiners says not to use to send your license renewal in because stuff gets lost.

Mr. Dr. Hess,

I would be interested in the headlight switch,  if it hasn't been claimed. What do you need for it, shipped to 62258, and do you take paypal?

The broken dimmer wheel sounds like a great job for my new 3d printer! 

Thanks 

Sure, James, it's your's.  Dunno on the shipping yet.  Give me a couple days, guys, and I'll get them boxed and figgered.  Paypal is fine.

In reply to Dr. Hess :

No problem, I live in a town of 900 people and know the postman.  I have more trouble with UPS.

Jims:

   Switches went out USPS today. 

Thanks so much!

OK, I received the switch! So awesome, thanks a lot!!
