moran75 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Hi all re the semi circular ribbed trim that wraps around steering column …as per pic attached (not mine ). re. top piece …I’ve removed the 4 screws from below (only fastenings shown in manual BTW) but piece doesn’t want to move…. Is there a method to sliding it off? Or is there another fastening somewhere? not going to force it, especially considering what’s underneath, but I’d like to polish it up if possible … thanks in advance kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockinRiviDad Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I can check on my car when I get home tonight. I think the top piece is sandwiched between dash & column. U might have to loosen the steering column so it comes down a bit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telriv Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 That part should come off with the four screws. Tom T. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hoping so … something seems to be stopping easy removal…I don’t want to force it so if doesnt come out easy I’ll leave it and polish it in position… cheers, Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moran75 Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 Thanks all …consensus suggests should come off easily with removal of the four screws …as mine isn’t I think I’ll leave it where it is 😀 kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telriv Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Why don't you post a pic of the 4 screws you are removing to make sure your removing the proper ones. Not that there are anything other than the 4 IF I remember correctly. Tom T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moran75 Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 Def correct screws…as per manual ..thinking out loud I have a tilt steering column - would that be a factor if not aligned some how? I’m with the car tomorrow - I’ll have a ‘ gentle’ and brief play .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
