Ordered up a new set from Central TVR, just waiting for delivery anyday.
Has anyone any tips on fitting as I thought I'd give it a bash?

Go for it! thumbup

I done mine a few months back and it took roughly two days to complete. I thouroughly enjoyed all the "hi's and Lows" of getting the seats out and back in again plus trying to pull all the carpet from the transmition tunnel where it goes under the dash.banghead

Make sure you take your time and don't rush the job. The carpet should come out in sections, and you should be able to recognise these when you fit the new pieces. plenty of high strength contact adhesive!rotate

Take pictures of the rear section before you start.. infact all joint areas.. then you'll know how they go back and where to make cuts etc.. smile

you need to take the centre out if you can... not sure how they remove from Chimps but looks like it should be easy in comparison to the Griff.. and they are not hard...?

screws at front of the console, and some under the insert in the tray at the back. It helps to remove the golf ball, but it will come off with that still in place if you are careful.
