I still didnt find anything.

Does anyone know for boot trim that is in good condition and is willing to ship to Slovenia?

Are there any good sites to look for spare (used) parts?

I will try industrial glue.

By the way does anyone knows where to look for used trim in good condition?

Or if anyone knows for crashed one that is willing to ship it to Slovenia?

If it's in good condition there is no problem for me to pay reasonable money for it.

Thank you.

How would you approach on broken tabs? Plastic welding or something similar?

Hi.

I am writing this is (bad) English as well as I can because neither is my first language.

And I need help because i have bigger problem than it seems.

I have 2017 Innovation Astra K 1.6 diesel. Bought it new. Car was twice repaired from hail damage. First hail almost totaled car.

So interior trim was taken apart at least two times.

Now i have problem with boot trim. Problem is that on this trim there are broken/missing clips where side trim (left, right part) that goes around rear windows clips on. So its not sitting flush with body panel and is rattling around.

Is there any way to fix this?

Problem is that they dont make this part anymore. Thats what ive heard. I would buy new one but apparently you cant anymore.

I have searched online for used one but everyone is scratched a lot. Mine is like new.

I dont have any pictures but i can make one in next days. Is it possible to fix or create new "clips, tabs" on panel?

Or better do you know where to get new part or used but in good condition?

I live in Slovenia and am prepared to order, buy used if in good condition and shipping not too high.

This panel is what i am talkinh about only that on mine was vertical "clip" or plastic tab not horizontal where panels meet.

Also is it ok to use green clips instead of blue ones? What is difference?

I hope that someone can help me as i want to fix this permanently.

Thank you in advance.

I need those instructions too.

This is the first thing that i will try. Under piano black on door handles and cover of rearview mirror.

The its not only mine that has a lot of creaks? Because i had a chance to drive 2019 facelift model on same road and there was still some creaks.

And another problem. Plastic cover/vent on dash is sticking out. When i press down it pops out again instantly. Does not want to stay in place.

Any recommendation?

I have tried with different "used" piece and its the same.

Problem in dash itself?

Thanks.

Hi.

I am writing this in english as german is not my first language (nor its english). I hope its ok.

I have 2017 Opel Astra Innovation (bought new) with 140.000 on clock. Its 1.6 cdti 136ps. I am happy with performance of the car. And its been reliable so far (knock on wood). But i am not so happy with quality of interior.

Every panel in intrerior rattles when going over bad road, cobblestone road.

And i mean everything rattles! Its driving me mad! I dont even know where to start! Like its over 20 years old with over 500.000km on clock.

How to solve this problem? Where to look at? I think it rattles in door cards, under dashboard, behind speedo. Everywwhere.

But is true that my car was twice repaired from hail storm damage.

So i think that most of the interior was taken apart at least twice. Apart from dashboard.

Still its driving me mad. I can record tomorrow with phone but not sure about quality of recording.

Where to start?

Thank you.

ok thanks

So there maybe is the way. Only problem with insurance is that healight "glass" is not cracked and they will find 1001 excuse that its headlight fault and not from hailstorm.

Headlight was allready replaced once when car was under warranty because of motor controlling main lens.

I will see what i can do.

This is how its now. Apparently water came inside headlight somehow.

Hi.

I am writing this in english because i am not german.

I have 2017 Astra K Innovation with matrix leds. On friday my car was hit by hail storm unfortunatelly.

I dont remember problems with lights before.

On Monday morning i noticed strange light pattern on passenger side. It was not fully illuminated. Like light was shining through fence.

When i arrived at work i looked at headlight.

I noticed "streaks", dirty lens. Like it was from water. I am sure this is my problem.

Now question. Can you open healight to clean lens or is it sealed?

I dont see any cracks on glass but i guess water came inside headlight somehow.

I there any way to clean headlight lens or is only solution replacing with new one.
