New steering wheel Parralel parkings going be so much more interesting with this, It fitted inside the standard wheel, and no P/S

Think it matches the rest of my interior quite well

Cheers for the comments. Think it was a bargain at the price i paid too

Cant decide on whether to colour code the bits around the vents and the bar in front of the passenger or not. Was thinking it might look a little OTT

Think im gonna get a new gear gater at MPL (hoping the show prices will be a little cheaper than the usuall £30 richbrook/simoni jobbies) As for the gear knob, ive just took out the plastic insert, shaved down the rubber and put an aluminium disk in their, but im not sure it looks that good

Dont really want to change the gearknob as i use a gearlock thing, that'll be usless if you can get the new one off easy enough (which you proberbly will be able to), plus dont fancy cutting the old one off as i havent got another standard one to replace it

Dont suppose youve got a pic of a gater surround have you? There usually chrome, so it'll match my door handles and door pins

As for the steiny handbrake handle, im guessing there not that cheap

Just an update, found anice solution to my gear knob problem. Flicking through an Astra coupe Brochure, i noticed something that i liked....





Think it looks loads better than standard, and saves me having to hack my old one off

Bought it off a dodgy guy off here for £70 second hand (but doesnt have a mark on it, so its like new). Dont think there available in this country, because the bloke got it from Germany.

Are my ears burning?
Rob, yes I can get more. They do one in chrome and black too, that looks the absolute bollox!! I think I'm gonna get another one and take a trip up north (hint hint)
If your thinking of getting leather gaiters, have a word with me first. I can get some tailored to fit, same as mine if interested.
