Hello,

I went dirt roading with 91 LX and rattled loose the cover plate for the "change oil light,etc" which is located directly above the radio.
I attempted to push it back in and broke off one leg, later I broke the other off when I shut a door,it was in my shirt pocket :(

I attempted to superglue the legs back and it didn't hold so I went to the
dealer and I was told they no longer carry such dash trim parts.
Any ideas on how to repair this or who might stock the part would be
greatly appreciated, it rattles like h---- now and of course looks terrible.

Thanks for any help,

I would try a junk yard, while scouting parts for myself I have seen several of the panels you are talking about. I could walk out of my junk yard with one for like $2.

Good Luck.

Yeah, mine broke it's way out also, it was barely in, I just sanded off the legs (because I'm a neat freak) and took a chaulk gun and put some on the edges and pushed it in (took a few tries 'till it was right) and then wiped away the excess.. it's not perfect -- or very pretty , but it's in there... otherwise you're better off junking for it.
