Cracked plastic bulkhead between seats.

Post by southerndreamer » Tue Nov 14, 2017 1:54 am

Recently found a small crack in the plastic bulkhead above the rear glove box. Is there any suitable way to glue this as a replacement part is expensive. Thanks in advance.

You see these pop up on ebay quite often. Prices vary, but around £50 so not worth trying to get repaired.

Mine has done that too! I’m not sure the best way to deal with it. I was thinking of covering the whole thing in suede but that wouldn’t be an easy job.... I can’t think of a glue that would look any good...
Have you tried a breaker? I seem to remember that part can be us for about 80 quid?

Thanks for the feedback guys, I'm in Auckland NZ and we don't have many breakers or Z4s so limited options I'm afraid. I do have rellies in the UK so it's possible that I may get some assistance there.
