Riley 0 Posted May 20, 2006 Ive got my dials in bits again! :shock: cant wait to get them finished :D will be the last time i play with them for a while i think...although i had another silly idea today,like the little project im currently on with isnt stupendous enough! definately still to do: finish dials. recover my custom parcel shelf in black alacantara replacing the grey i did it in last time. source a black under dash shelf (one next to fuse box cover) source a drivers side black door speaker grill. possibly doing: sort a vdo boost gauge/oil pressure/and another in place of stereo. fit stereo elsewhere... and then i think thats the interior finished! neil.
