Thank you

I really enjoyed doing it.

I wondered if I ought to paint the cover above the instruments in gloss black to match ?

Looks a top notch job well done Thumbs Up Trouble is if you paint above the instruments is that you may well end up doing the passenger side glove box too. Although that maybe a good idea. Silver or black though? Thumbs Up

I did think it may lead to the glove box lid as well Laughing

I think silver would be too much, however I'm thinking of putting a 'Mud' switch panel in for the Led lightbars and thought that might look good in silver with black Carling switches ....

That would be good FCX. Wonder how much the centre dash would be new from LR? That way if anything did go wrong with painting at least you'd have either a spare or replacement.

I've got a spare for that very reason, it was part of a job lot I bought so don't know what a new one would be

£31 is it? Wow that is good! I've always gone with Kenwood myself tried alpine once and had poor quality experience and poor quality so wouldn't go there again. But I am biased I will admit that Cool
