well i haven't picked up my car yet but i would like to know where to buy Foot Mats for a 350i Wedge.
When i go to England to pick up the Wedge i would like to do a bit of Wedge shopping.
Carpets and maybe Veneer for the Dashboard.
Open to suggestions

Mark Zig on here has started to make the Mats.

Currently they no supply of Veneer, but there is a company that do a very good stick on Vinyl veneer, I was skeptical but was very impressed.

I saw something on a past blog with "HOTTY" and i think he did a Veneer on his Silver 350i.
I have e-mailed him but no reply for the moment. Wait and see

Hi...I think someone on FB used a pre-sized piece of plastic veneer and cut that to fit which looked quite impressive...Ill copy the pic and post it as i don't think the guy is on PH.

Im not sure where mine were from but they are a stick on by the look of it...Don't think these were a "Hotty dash"



Im making Wedge over mats for my Wedge friends so if you could email me i can explain what i can do...Or i can PM you.

Thanks

This guy always has listings on ebay. They look nice but I've never seen one in person.

There were some threads about shop in the UK that everyone though well of. But beyond my PH searching skills. Grady

Just wondering if the veneers work for both RHD and LHD cars.

Hi Wilf...I should think so as its a sheet of self adhesive vinyl so is not handed...I think you will need to remove the veneer or whats left of it so that you have a flat surface to stick it to...The holes are then cut out....Although I'm not sure if you cut them as they appear or cross cut to fold behind the openings?...Guess it doesn't matter if you have bezels to go in there afterwards...


Cheers

Just rotate the LHD dash panel 180 degrees for RHD, apply veneer, then rotate back 180 degrees for LHD. Install the 'clocks' in their LHD orientation. wink
