Had a bit of time at hand and got round to doing this and trying to make it look as oem as possible...this has been done before by a couple of peeps as far as i know but I managed to rescue the glorious cup holder in my version.

Just a shame I never to the pictures from before but some of you might of seen as it was before with the gauges just above the stereo in a din adapter :thumbsup:

thanks guys!

Jay it can be a bit of a fiddle for getting stuff to fit mate and now that ive done it I would of gone some diferent ways about it.

I did buy the whole center section to mess about with and then just swapped the bits meaning the I have the same left over but in turn makes the job alot easyer.

If you are thinking on taking the rask on mate let me know and I could give you some tips on what tools and other products you will need in order to make it into a decent job.

Will try and get you the aircon surround tomorrow from where i got mine from mate (cost me a fiver)... with any luck in time to be packed with another bit i got coming :thumbsup:
