CONSOLE TRIM REPAIR KIT P/N AND INSTALL PROCEDURE

MODELS AFFECTED: 1978-84 SEVILLE ELEGANTE 1982-84 ELDORADO TOURING COUPE

The trim material seams located on the console between the rear compartment and armrest on Seville Elegante and Eldorado Touring Coupes may separate resulting in an unacceptable appearance.

A console trim repair kit, P/N 1631160, has been released to repair this condition. The repair kit contains a molded plastic trim plate and two plastic rivets. The new trim plate is made to cover the area where the trim material may have separated.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Identify interior trim color as listed on second line of body I.D. plate. Paint the trim plate and rivet heads in semi-gloss finish to match console.

5. While firmly holding trim plate in place, insert rivets into holes and press on center locking pins until pins are flush with rivet heads.
