Nice work, it looks awesome :yesnod:

Very nice mate, nice touches there. Where did you get the seatbelt positioner that bolts to the headrest from? The wife needs them being 5'1". Is that a engine start button in place of the lighter? Ideal spot for it!

Excellent, I'll go have a peek.

Start buttons are fun, good to watch the MOT tester struggle to start it! I put one in my ZS, funny how something so silly can impress folk!

this is the kit i got

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120475892171

fits straight in no probs but i found it a bit untidy round the switch ,so trimmed the flaps off the start button and fitted it in the orange ring of the lighter (just removed the inner chrome lighter part), much neater.

cheers for that mate.....was toying with this idea too
