Replacement Ash Tray Cover?

electricmba · 11-12-2007, 03:08 PM

As much as I love DIY projects, I'm terribly impatient, which generally results in me breaking or ruining things in the process. This brings us to my current predicament, where I was attempting the sunglasses holder DIY, and I scratched the top of the ash tray cover while attempting to pry it off. In my own defence, it is a bitch to get off, but the lesson learned is to stick the screwdriver deeper in while prying.

Anyway, here's where we are:

I'm really pissed at myself, and the only way to make myself feel better is to replace this top cover. I've checked around the forum and various part sites, but I can't find the specific part number for an ash tray cover w/ brushed aluminum trim.

Can anyone help out with getting this part number for me, or better yet, anyone change out their trim and have a spare that they'd like to sell me?

Thanks All.

I found this page before - I just don't know which part number applies - is it 51166970139?

Can anyone confirm the part number I need here? I don't want to order the incorrect one online.

Just as an FYI for anyone else who needs this, the part number is actually: 51166951577

A big thanks to JD at Crown Auto for finding this for me.
