instrument panel lower - driver

[phelbas]

my vs2 has a hole drilled in one of the three blanking rectangles that are shown cut out in this picture of a part, online.. it is doing my ocd in.

what were these three possible buttons originally for?

is the lower plastic trim panel in a vspec 2 a different color to a non vs2 bnr34? 

does anyone want to trade their panel without a hole, for one with a hole, and some cash!

thanks

You talking about the bit I circled?

$1 gives you 5 that the holes are not "cut out". They would be "press out". And the chances that they are different colours between a V spec and and normal GTR and even a 2WD car is more a case of $5 gets you 1. All the same would be my first response.

thanks, yeah press out.

means buying one online - if they have been pressed out already - is no good. perhaps the one I found is for cars with some winter package buttons or something. Just to be clear my three spots have press out blank plastic but one has a neat round hole in it probably for the original alarm or something

so you think the vs2 trim panel is probably identical in color to vs1 or standard? I bought an interior fuse panel cover before, it was too light in color

When I say "press out" I don't mean "break out". On the R32 these are all tabbed in with clips that can go in and out as many times as you like.

oh i see

maybe thats the same. I did not inspect mine closely enough. So that might mean the part comes with 3 blanks for clipping in. and maybe that is the bit I need...

More than likely. Unless colour is an issue after all.
