[QUOTE=faisalayub;4246637]@Xulfiqar...
Nice to see your car even i have a 2000cc Manual 1982 Toyota Cressida my dad drove it to Pakistan from Kuwait in 1982 after purchasing it there. But due to high temperatures in Karachi its dashboard cracked a bit and one of the tail light broke when a motorcyclist rammed it up. Is there any solution to get the dashboard back in good condition. Plus a mechanic never touched it and it has its original paint coat.

@faisalayub

Last time I saw u changed Bulb colors of A/c buttons. Kindly revert back to original color

Nops... I havent chaged color of any bulbs in interior... They are same as is..

The bulbs are supposed to have a green rubber cap on them - they make the bulb glow green, and light up the panels in green.

You can buy them at industrial supply stores too. The toyota green is not very unique.

Zulfiqar bhai... My cressi have still same bulb with green cap.. And they looks much better than the normal yellow shade without cover..

Then due ro aging, green caps have finished their life.
As @Xulfiqar bhai told, buy them as current Luminance is not matching original Look
