Well I decided that I'd like some more walnut to go with Meg's erm...'walnut' beige interior, so after a bit of swapsies or door caps, and a £4.99 kit off eBay for the vents she looks like this:





I'll be needing my pipe and slippers next (before any says it!)....

Mmm nice job there Adam :).

Those storage things on the bottom of the doors look handy. Any info on them please?

Excellent job there :thumbsup:

Leigh - the door pods were made by Mike Satur. I've been after a pair for my car but retail they are £100+ for the pair, so I've been trawling eBay but no luck yet :(

Thanks guys. The pods were from elsewhere, not MS - I ended up getting them cheap (about £20 from what i remember all those years ago!) - but they certainly retailed at about £90!! Insane at that price. They are also a bit 'thin' and next spring I am going to make them thicker with some P40 on the inside of them, then cover them with leather I think.

It's amazing how many jobs you realise you haven't done when you finish something small... I found the rear parts for the air-con and the TF Boot and rear bumper, and the spare passenger door (all need spraying!) in the shed when I got the wood out! LOL

That's right, these had been available from the MGOC shop until about 2008. Quite pricy though.

It's starting to bug me :lol: - it's the only bit of interior I still have on my wants list but the price, if available, stings for 2 bits of moulded plastic.

Oh, and I do want a carbon fibre instrument surround and trims for the door pods ;)

and alloy FX rear speaker covers - that were never made :nonod:
