What are the chances of welding these in place without destroying the dash?
And if they will weld why didn't TVR?

Ended up welding the clips that had fallen off without suffering any distortion to the main face of the dash.
Also welded an m5 stud where one had failed.
This was done in bare metal state with veneer to follow,
fitting a refurbed dash seems to be all the rage at the moment but I've missed out on one of Pete's masterpieces.
Refitting the refurbed item without damaging the veneer or the vinyl surround covering is interesting work.
