Coverlay Install Return to Directory


Installed this a few weeks ago. My dash has been cracked for years but this summer my car has been parked in direct sunlight and its gotten much worse. I picked up a coverlay for ~ $120 and installed it. It was not a perfect fit. Corners of dash were swollen on both sides and it did not fit over the edge by front defroster too well. I left it in the car for a few days to heat up and siliconed it in place. I opted not to put the airbag cover on as it wasn't necessary.

Overall fit is 8/10. Install was super easy and I assume the fit is off due to the age of my dash and swelling over years.

I also noticed my whole build thread is one long page... is it showing up like that for anyone else? not sure how to fix it.

I have been hearing a loud clunk the past few days driving and more specifically turning. It has been intermittent but I knew something was not right. Finally got it located to the Driver side rear with my head out the window driving and found this....

Going to be interesting replacing my Rear links while at school with only the car jack included with the car. I was going to replace these a few years ago when I replaced the front but my mechanic said it was not necessary if bushings were still good.

Bought TRQ PSA55972

OEM Idler Pullies just crapped out on me. They started to make a loud noise whenever the engine is running and its bothering the hell out of me. I am not sure which one it is, but I might as well take this as an opportunity to replace all of them If I am in there. I see it is much cheaper to swap the bearings themselves vs buying a whole new pully but I do not have access to a press.
Other than that seems pretty straight foward

This helped a lot! Late response but was able to come up with something similar. Really appreciate it!
