When stripping down my Sierra, I got a bit carried away with throwing bits
of plastic trim out. In particular, I chucked away the steering column trim
that sits on top and covers the red hazard warning switch. I also threw out
the plastic that goes underneath and covers the electrics. I've since seen
pictures of completed Robin Hoods and decided that you're actually supposed
to keep this! So, have I made a mistake and, if so, where can I get replacement bits of placcy?!

Steering Column Trim
in Fitting & bodywork
Posted
I went to the local scrapyard(s) and found F, G and J registered
Sierras. The F-reg had only the bottom half of the shroud, the
G-reg had top and bottom but knackered, and the J-reg one was
in perfect condition, but of different design. I ended up buying
the J-reg shroud for £2, but I'm wondering if it will still fit on
the older style of car (my donor is F-reg and I haven't tried
it yet)?? The top and bottom pieces are both longer and there is
a hole in the bottom one for adjusting the steering wheel. I suppose
I could cut it down to size, but if it still doesn't fit, then I'm running
out of scrap yards!!
Cheers,
Peter
