hey everybody !

I recently read total vauxhall magazine (november '03)
In it I found Isaac Walley's corsa b (the flame thrower one) and saw something that would nicely compliment my silver lockwood dials...

Can anyone tell me where I can buy or find 3 chrome heater adjusters ?
I've also seen them on an astra, but I require them for my corsa b sxi...

Any help or suggestions would be great

I sprayed mine with Chrome Effect spray paint from Halfords. It was a right pain in the arse to use. Left the finish uneven. Had to put quite a few coats on before it looked chrome all over.
When it came to cleaning them, even just wiping them with a cloth, the shine disappeared and left them looking dull.
Crap paint IMO that stuff.
Repsrayed the air flow slider thingy with Silves car paint and a top coat of laqure and
Just spray them up using exterior paint with plastic primer and they'll look tops. No need to buy chrome ones unless you really want to.

I can get chromed controls knobs like in the pic below, also matching original Vauxhall doorpins. If your after the silver look, I can also do a brushed alloy dial fascia, plus one to follow for the mfd shortly
