Thanks for the great comments guys, this car has become my second wife biggrin

Tony, you're a nightmare, here I am trying to stop spending anymore money and your teasing me into s/s knobs, tell me what you know?
Actually, I hate the clock and want to do something nice with the boring looking clock.

The balance of the Clear glass buttons being fabricated and get fitted with my service tomorrow.

Did you spot the matt black and chrome Z Badge on the ashtray, choose the early one from the DB4GT in homage to the the best Zagato IMHO smile. Ordered the vintage badge on special order, from WS

Fitted




It looks absolutely wonderful.

Now, someone needs to create a cost-effective replacement for the crappy looking plastic seat adjustment switches.

They really spoil the interior.

I hate mine and would buy a decent replacement in a heartbeat.

Thankssmile
Premium looking seat switches, I totally agree. We could try the floating film process to coat the switch components. Is it Extreme Coatings in Dorset, I think these guys can do just about anything?
KF took his switches apart for his new Vantage GT Q project, did he show finished pictures?

ABSOLUTELY! I've just fitted Tony's THUGs (thanks Tony) for my stereo, but I'd love to replace the seat switches! However, my obsession with mods is growing and I do wonder where it will all end ... although I do actually quite like the clocksmile

Absolutely zero beautifications done on my shed today unlike the many pretty pictures above. However, I did drive past an unmarked police car at around 85-ish who then glued themselves to my rear bumper until I reached my junction.

It was the usual too shiny Octavia in black with low profile lights on the rear shelf and an oversized "reversing" camera under the bootlid spoiler cruising along in lane 3 of 4. Fortunately all these registered just as got within a car length or two of them, so I lifted and coasted back down to 70 with immaculate lane discipline... hehe

Hi Frankie, How is the control unit attached to the dash? And did you fit it yourself?

Interested in this for the Vantage.
