The silver alloy outer rings that go around the heater dials an the dash clock. Like the ones on your speedo etc, only smaller. Speaker rings also an option smile
Actually having looked twice, you don't have dash dial rings either, it's a trick of the light in the photo rolleyes

So are the alloy rings standard on a plus? I've 3 Plus's and never noticed they have them.

No - not standard - they're a common aftermarket adornment

I thought that the plus had clock / dial / speaker rings as standard!

Dude, get some. They change the whole look of the interior!

Nice looking car, especially for the miles, even the bay looks quite tidy!

Fiat did an aftermarket option on alloy rings for dash, centre consol and speakers. Other people have also made repro identical items, some fit better than others. IMO I like them they do lift the cabin. Alloy gear lever and handbrake surrounds though confused

The Fiat Accessory range included the gear lever and handbrake surround only, AFAIK the alloy "rings" were designed/made by one or more enthusiasts with copies arising later as you would expect, hence the variable fit. The rings I have were from a group buy (organised the "old way") by "sandys" in 2001 and these were copies from originals sourced from Germany.
