TVR styled seat belt pads

[tuscandani]

Alex, have you heard of the AX1 Clarion? It has android facilities too which would be great to have the app to show the ECU system. You most probably have this too on your Clarion.

I did look into a system like that, but I'm using Dom's ECU now which has a different MS on it.

It is OBDII compatible though, so Dom was going to look at doing something for me which would
send live data through to the vid display (similar to GTR).

I just need to remind him or it

...and yes, sorry, I forgot to check the boot of the Evora this morning when it went in for a service.

I'm getting it back in a few days, so I'll check it then... : getmecoat:

[tuscandani]

Please do, that's nice to hear. So what model would you advise on? There are so may Clarion ones. I think I need to pick your brains....

Did you get the beast out of storage matey?

I'm getting the Evora out of storage tomorrow for a service. I think it is in there.

Its a 2010-2011 Clarion model - discontinued now, but really nice spec.

[alex_gray255]

Yup. Over in BS getting done.

[tuscandani]

I won't have the car back this week, mate, so I won't be able to look until next week at the earliest.

It is waiting for parts from Lotus.

[tuscandani]

Sure Alex, thanks for letting me know.

D&C Trim made me a pair of pads up while they were doing the interior.

Hi Dani, Car is due to be delivery to my home tomorrow but I'm not back until the 6th July so no pics until then, sorry. Having said that, I can ask my wife.

TBH - any decent trimmer could do it. I know of a few who have

[tuscandani]

I've contacted my two local ones and they said they need the pads and they would do it but can't create them which was odd. I really want the ones you have. Bulgarians still haven't responded unfortunately so relying on your good self to help out.

I find that odd. I spoke with a trimmer in Essex a couple of years back as well as Castle Sports Cars (a while back as well) and they were happy to do me TVR pads. I just gave them a pic of what I wanted.

I've also had trimmers do something similar for a few other cars I restored over the years and they did them as
well.

But...

[tuscandani]

One trimmer said he's charge me £300 plus VAT trimming a steering wheel, I nearly slapped him. Can't trust trimmers these days. Lots of con artists.

Any news yet buddy, I'm getting my new Cerbera steering wheel sorted next week and replacing the boss and having it in my Tuscan.

Would like to get the pads installed then when I'm back from leave. Are you able to let me know if you want to sell th to me please?
