glad you all think the same about the lights ,cos i did it today !!!!!! all red though not half ,ill get pics tomorrow ,i know what you mean about the mirrors ,i kicked myself after welding up the holes cos i cant fit standards now !!! thats why im thinking about mx5 mirrors ,thanks for your comments blair you have some really good points ,i only wish the parts were a bit cheaper for them ,im missing trims on the doors as it is ,replacing all them would be a nightmare ,does anyone go to the flog vw meet in lichfield ? i only found out about it last night might go next week if its on , thanks again everyone

the dash was roughly the same size ,so it wasn't too bad to fit ,the wiring is quite similar so that was okay too , i found an airbag panel so i didn't have to have the glovebox there ,hopefully ill get one of the lower ones,the wheels on it are artec wheels brought from styledynamics on ebay a while ago ,ive re polished the outer rim and i might paint the centres glossy black ,opinions please ,what colour do you lot think i should do em ,more pics soon ,cant seem to get back before we lose light !!! crappy winter !!!!

thanks phil k ,i think mx5 mirrors look cool ,just a bit pricey !!! quite like raddo mirrors with the black bit flushed in ,it is a mk3 dash with tt surround and knee bars and mk3 tunnel trim ?!! and an audi handbrake sleeve ,funny cos i could never get the raddo tunnel trim thing to sit right but the mk3 sits nice and tight ,still has raddo clocks on mounts and im currently fitting aircon too thanks for looking

heres a few pics of how i did it the first time ,dash was smoothed like a20 lee's ,after i saw it at e38 2004 (i think) ,not nearly as good as his though ,was definitly inspired by it though ,

thanks everyone ,as you can imagine it took quite a while to do and it wasn't without the odd mishap,the inspiration for the whole interior in cream was a mk3 golf doing the shows this year ,looked amazing and was miles better quality than mine ,think it was an mj interior hence amazing ,ill try to get more pics tommorrow of the interior ,did anyone notice it isn't a raddo dash ? thought i would be getting grief for that ???!!!!??! dash is covered in leather and was a bitch to do , i also did the headlining and a,b,c pillars and parcel shelf , ill get pics of them tommorrow ,thanks again for the comments it makes all the grief worthwhile ,
-
sorry for the confusion ,was going to paintshop pro the pics to make them less fuzzy ,but i cant seem to get it to work ,the paint is the audi tt aviator grey colour which im going to do again with a pearl in/on , did all of it myself including ,prep,paint,dash conversion,leatherwork,electrics,and welding ,thanks for the kind welcomes people
