RICHB Unregistered R	tried trimming my center console in leather, absolute nightmare. the thickness of the leather stops all the fixtures that attach behind from fitting correctly, and the six 'hazard' buttons no longer fit in their apertures either, even after loads of filing down etc, the aircon buttons were almost impossible to sort. it just didnt look neat enought in the end, I was mighty miffed ! $\:mad\:$

Not really a fan of the silver consoles with bright coloured dash strips,just looks wrong IMHO $\:$$ . Baz $\:$$ Project LE+

Danirv Unregistered D	I really liked the yellow with gloss black, and the titanium one, i didnt realise that 16v had different console areas, they seem to mould together better than the 20vt, coz i like the speed red centre console (not the red, but the way its all as one) dont take offence speed red owners $\:D$

BuzyG Unregistered B	Looks Great in Gloss Black. My console looks terible with the rubber finish. How easy is it to remove the console, does it just unclip?
