In this DIY I will show you how you can use this poxy to repair the drivers side window switch plate . Once you have the door panel removed , Make sure you stock the door panel from dust , dirt and grease . As you can see in the photo the rear part of the face plate had been broken off but the front still clips . Once I mixed the poxy I apllied it to the front clip even though that piece was not broken I still wanted a good full tight grip , Then apply poxy to the back part where the door panel and the broken piece connect . Make sure you dont get it on the window switch because if that ever goes out you want to make sure you can easily take it out and replace it . You can take out the switch when your doing this or in my case you dont have to . Once you apply the poxy let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes then you can out the door panel back to the vehicle . Once you poxy the face plate you have to remember you can never pop this off , You have to remove the whole panel . But in the end it is worth it and saves you money . This plastic plate is hard to find out at the junk yards . More info : rinconrolla98.blogspot.com/.

New cover doesn't cost that much through Toyota. I got a switch cover for my mom's Sienna for $17.
