I wrestled getting the centre console out , the gearknob was not going be removed without a big fight so took a scarp knife to the leather stitching and removed it that way. But previously Plans have taken this off and made a right mess of the fixing of the gaiter, so I might replace it all.

It does look pretty good.
What do people tend to do about the triangular bit of plastic around the interior door handle?

I've just got a carbon door triangle (came with the car) but wouldn't mind a black and red stitch one if one came available.

Just a quick heads up if anyone is thinking of ordering the door shoulder bits, a recent set I've seen had a small hole punched in the leather to allow for the central locking pin, which is all well and good as long as you have central locking :closedeyes:

If not just contact them and they will supply without the holes

I'll be putting my interior back together next weekend so will take some shots and post them on here. I've got the door cards, handbrake gaiter and gear gaiter.

Did you have to cut the handbrake one down a bit? I got the same set from them (tho with black stitching) and had to modify slightly, but for the price it was still spot on thumbsup

Maybe I just got sent the wrong one then lol. There was too much leather under the console which stopped the handbrake from fully releasing. Simple job to cut it down a bit though.
