The hole thing just pops out then the clear bit comes out of that, it's fairly easy to do and I think it will make all the difference to the overall finish especially with the effort you've been puting into the head lining etc, you could still do something other than black but the grey doesn't fit somehow to my eyes..:)

Other option is purple but, better to go with a neutral in case I change it all around.

Yip purple or that green colour that's in your head lining design would totally look better I think, you can always change it later if needed or get a second hand one to replace it.:)

I put the black plastics in today that I bought ages ago. Rear pockets and seatbelt covers were awful to do as the rear seatbelt had to be unbolted at both ends.

Cannot for the life of me work out how to take the winders off !

Looks good though boo, nice job. I understand the difficulty because I've just been puting all my carpets and trim back in and I've not quite finished yet, seats to go. What about the interior light, any decision on it yet?:)

I have a spare light. I'm going to a show at the weekend so I think I'm going to leave it for now and then send it off with the visor's to get flocked.

I'm stopping after all the flocking ! I don't want to go into the realms of doing the carpet, very brave !

Looks good. I just know I would end up getting annoyed with myself and lose my temper. I have patience for most things but, door clips and fiddly bits don't have a hope in hell.

Lol I know what you mean but you're doing a good job on your car, you've done all the headliner and stuff, I reckon you'd manage better than you think, I'll pm you a funny pic of one of the things that didn't go to plan, it was pretty funny.:)

I always take pics if I remember, I'm only human after all and some of the mistakes are funny, thankfully I don't make as big mistakes as I have done in the past:D

I have a black roof so don't want too many exterior black bits. I have some new wheels lined up when I have managed to get time off to drop them into the powder coaters. Bumpers need a respray. Need some HID's too. So a few things to do.
