Hi folks, I just got a carbon fiber instrument binnacle. Is there an easy way to remove the plastic one and install the CF one? Or is this something I should leave to the Tesla service center?
Its doable by yourself. If I recall its just a couple of screws, clips and velcro holding it down. Same removal process as the Elise, I'd search for the removal procedure process for that on the web and go from there.
I forgot, the clips on the binnacle will most likely fall off and get lost under the dash. You'll need one of those magnet extensions to fetch them when they do.
To give an ending to the story—I followed the Elise instructions this morning and they worked. I was able to change the instrument binnacle with nothing more than a Phillips screwdriver. It does require a certain amount of jostling and a little force, though. But here's the finished product:
Looks beautiful. Congratulations on the part! In my opinion, CF interior is much better an option than the expensive exterior panels that seem to fade over time. The CF interior in my #1438 is from the factory in late 2011 and still looks phenomenal.
