Fabia in a breakers yard near me, but messed up!

Featured Replies

Had a good look this morning as I got some interior bits from it.

Its an old dark blue X reg 1.9 SDI, comfort spec I think (missing front wings so couldn't tell, but had elec windows)

If anyone has anything they want and I can remember if it had it (or not) I will try and help out. Car had clearly been rolled so was pretty messed up in general... Engine bay looked complete, had full interior still in but is now missing asome switches after I raided it. :)

Let me know

Bit of an odd request, but - the window rubber strip at the bottom of the window on the outside of the rear drivers side door... That's the only way I can explain it...

LOL - That was the exact seal I got for my own car this morning. :D The one on the mongrel now had come off at the front door end, and was all deformed having bent back in the wind. :( I could get the one off the passenger side, but the driver's side one is in the boot of my car awaiting fitting....

The things I vaguely remember being there and complete:-

Electric wingmirrors

All seats/carpets & all interior plastic trim, in a grey colour

All doorcards (minus my switchgear I nabbed) - passenger elec window switch still there

Boot trim looked all complete

I actually don't recall seeing the airbags gone off, so I think there is a complete airbag kit available....

I'm after all three blower vents on the dash if they're cheap enough. All of mine are broken in one way or another.

do you have any door handle parts left?!?

i need the o/s rear small black plastic cover (not the actual grab handle, the bit next to it that stays still on the door, what would hold the key hole if it were the driver's door) and also the inside bit that the plastic cover sits on.

Mine dropped out and lost, so assume whatever holds it in place inside is broke??

bit of a random request!! don't suppose you still have the torx screw that holds in the locking mechanism in place on the drivers door?!?!? (dropped mine in the door panel when i removed my handles!!)

many thanks

I might be able to get all those, but I know its fiddly getting that bolt out. You need a magnetic torx driver to be able to get that bolt out without it dropping into the door

Pretty sure all three vents were there. Shall also ask about those.

Cheers Devon.

Assumably given I tightened back up the torx screw and the rear thumb cover part still fell out I broke something inside??

Yeah that little screw was a little bugger, literally took ages so not to drop it but I did and now can see it hanging out of a hold at the bottom of the door!

Cheers. I'm after one too. Seems they get a bit of stick when the driver gets in and out, mine won't sit properly at the front.

I should get on down to my local scrap yard now and again. Lived here a year, small scrap yard 5 minutes walk, never been :rofl:

Anyone know a part number or the actual technical name of it? Hahaha!

The metal ring that turns when you undo the torx screw is either broken or fallen out. Normally falls out if you undo the torx screw to far. Door needs to be stripped down.

I probably won't be able to get back there again until two weeks time so plenty of time to get a list of potential bits

Dash vents main thing at the moment I guess.
