So I have the bezel thing that holds all of the window switches... And the last owner broke off the clip on the front of it. Any ideas how to keep it in place? It keeps falling down like so...vvv

And as you know, this is what it should look like.

Thank you very much. I just cannot be creative for the life of me. And after owning the car for about a year it is driving me crazy.
 


Go to a dealership and pay like $30 for the trim piece. If you don't know what it is then tell them to look at it in the car. And they will find it for you :) The button clusters have little tabs and just use a screw driver to GENTLY take them off the trim piece and then re-install. Just remember to take your time and do it right.
 
buy a new switch plate, swap your switches into it and enjoy, you could find one on here in the parts for sale, there's a few part outs, ebay, and so on.
 
Oh, they're only $30? I wasn't doing that because on Ebay when I looked they were running 40-50. Well I live right down the street from a dealership, so going there tomorrow.

Thanks!

I just bought some crazy glue and glued my switches down, cheapest way to go about it.

I like to do the job the right way because then my car will last. I don't think anything on a nice car should be half assed. That's up to you but one would think you would want your car to stay perfect :th_laugh-lol3:. I'm not a huge fan of glue it scares me if the jobs not done right :th_nervous:.
 
mine broke just like that...just took a tooth pick and put some glue at the top..been holdin like that for 2 years
