Roylewaa Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 Quick trip to the scrappy this morning and got this little lot for £4, also got a rubber coin tray that sits under the ashtray aswell, As covered on here the long strip was a total pig to remove, even being careful I broke a clip off the back, Only thing I didnt get was the ashtray, a) because it was gone and I'm not sure if they fit as it's longer than the m onesilver/carbonish effect, think it will look nicer than the wood, need to get the ashtray as it would'nt look right leaving the ashtray and ciggy lighter surround woodI think it will complement the leather nicely when it's fitted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Bargain that, definitely need the ashtray though, check Wilksey's thread to see how it looks, (much better) would do mine but weave doesn't match the original kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roylewaa Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 Managed to fit the MG ZS carbonish trim (including a matching ashtray I picked up at another scrapyard for a fiver)Took me 3 hours to do, as everything that could go wrong did, long trim piece just didnt want to budge, and I foolishly unclipped the hot/cold air duct cable from behind the trim then spend best part of an hour trying to reconnect it, before realising I should of unclipped and unhooked it from under near the glovebox Instead iof 10mil bolts holding the armrest console in, It was screws that were almost seized in place, a long screwdriver with a pair of molegrips attached to the end and alot of patienceI must say these Honda's are pretty damn well put together, not like Fords where you can blow on the dashboard and it comes apart Don't know if it's me turning into an old F@rt but at the moment I'm not keen on it and I prefer the fake wood that was in before as the ZS trim looks a little plasticy, and the darn ciggy lighter doesent work, nor does the ashtray light up like the original didSo at the mo it could be coming back out and the wood back in Finally managed to put a new bulb in the clock while I was there which was a bonusI also found a working heater resister out of a scrapped 45 as well. which worked for about 4 minutes before it blew again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
