Looks good, what paint / material have you used there instead of the wood ?

[blaineuk]

has been painted in the same paint as the body, shows better in this picture.

Arr, I thought about doing that , but not too sure on the purple straight in my face with the sparkly bits Although you can see the metallic on yours. Does it distract you or glint too much in the sun when driving ?

[blaineuk]

no not a problem with reflections, only did it temporary but looks good so will leave it.

Nice one Blaine , can see you love your wedge to bits , especially as its as powerful as a 450se !

Yes whats with that! Heard about the stats at BBWF07.Dash looks sweet '

Hi,
Did you move your vents to the front of the dash to get the bezels to fit, as normaly they sit behind the dash panel.

Now I know who the other person is who bought the leven griff bezels.

Do you have a spare like me, may be worth finding some one else to buy our spare

I wondered where they were supposed to be , as mine have always been the last things that goes back in, but sunday I tried under the metal (ex wood) cover

Anyone know how the ventilation hoses are supposed to go, as none of mine look right and now taken them out. It looks like one should come from the matrix and do a 180 in to the front centre vents, one comes out and points to the floor either side (no vents just a pipe), and one comes from the engine bay (via front grill) to the side vents ?

[TVRleigh]

Both of mine are stot into a plastic tube, and this then is blocked off one end, and the other end has a 180 bend, that goes to the heater box.

I can post a pic tomorrow as its not currently in the car.

But also I have a strange freash air set-up the side vents are plumbed all the way to the front spolier holes.

And do you have 2 more going to the footwells with no vents ?

[TVRleigh]

I do get a lot of hot air in the foot wells, but don't know where it comes from, will have a look tonight where it comes from. and take some pic's
