For those of you with broken interior pieces..

I just found some stuff that fixes plastic pieces DAMN well!

Its from permatex and its called Plasti-Weld. Its an epoxy made for plastics.

I used it on all the cracked/broken parts on my center console, its in there like a rock now! I also used it on all the various little broken pieces around the interior. The bond at the joint is actually stronger than the plastic was in the first place!

Im really amazed. Give it a try.

Thanks for the info. My last RX7 (88 SE) was about 70% super glue on the inside!
I will have to try this stuff you mentioned...where did you buy this?

yeah the convertible is the worst. Cracked A-pillar panel (where the hardtop meets the pillar), cracked side pillar panel, etc..

Gonna use this & re-paint the plastic to look OEM.

Now if I could just find exterior window molding for cheap.
