Hello,

I am looking for the aluminum dash cover piece that is circled with arrow in the picture below. Mine has dents/scratches and I would like to replace it if possible. I want to use only Infiniti parts, please.

Any advice is sincerely appreciated!

Hello,

Thank you so much for your help!

Is the aluminum piece that I need to replace all by itself or is it attached to the radio/air conditioning? I didn't know if the aluminum piece covering was one entire piece; will I basically have to purchase an entire new radio/air conditioning or just the aluminum cover? I do want it stock in Infniti parts. Also, if I do find it for sale somewhere or at the junk yard, will it be hard to replace?

Thank you, sincerely, for your assistance!

Also, if I found an aluminum piece with navigation cheap within a junk yard would that work okay? Is the aluminum piece all one when it has navigation or is the aluminum covering over the navigation separate? I don't currently have navigation and wondered if this would be an issue when looking to replace this particular aluminum piece.

p.s. I apologize if I am asking excessive questions...I am a true girlie girl and don't know much about cars. Thanks for your patience!

Looking at some pictures of console with nav, i think the piece around the A/C radio controls is the same*, so that MIGHT be a usable replacement

As for whether that even feasible to swap, I can't speculate

* The piece that appears to be different to compensate for the nav screen is the piece that surrounds the highlighted aluminum piece in your picture
