Thanks Malcolm. This is something I'll investigate further.

I just fitted these today. The company mentioned was very prompt in mail all the way to Australia, and the product looks excellent. Like others I was shocked when it arrived, as it looked a grey colour. I had specified sandstone, but away from the car it looks wrong.

Perfect match against the interior though. I used superglue gel allowing some movement to match bracket holes etc. As you can see from the photo above, it gives the car some extra elegance with the walnut...much like a merc c class. It adds to the leather smell of the car too. Well worth it inmho.
