Instrument Cluster Lens - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

My instrument cluster lens is foggy/milky. It sometimes makes the numbers hard to read.
Does anybody have a spare very clear one or know where to get just the lens and not the whole cluster?

Well, unless someone on this forum is in your hometown, your best bet is to visit a u-pull-it wrecker and remove a guage pod from a scrap Camry. The lens just clips on to the pod assembly, and if that was all you were buying I cannot imagine them charging you more than a couple of bucks...

and while you're doing it you should look at doing your globes and gauge surround. i painted my gauge surround white and put in blue globes. makes it ALOT easier to see at night time and even during the day too!

like I said in an earlier thread, all the gen2s are gone from my local scrap yards... they're crush cars around here. =(

you can try taking it out ... wash it and polish it up with wax or something that might work

Eek. Sorry, but many of us didn't see your earlier post. If you happen to be in northern Wisconsin or Minnesota, I can get you a lens...
