apologies i am not familiar with this having had 2 connies, presumably its exactly the same sizeas the switch with the electric window button but just without the button and blank ? Please confirm and i will ask Simon.

Drivers door seat switch cover:

I am hoping to get my hands on one of the surrounds in which case i will send it over, if any body else has one they could donate let me know.

Vanity mirror covers:

Are you referring to the outside cover that you see when pulling down the sun visor or something for inside once the flap is lifted. As with all these new designs i will need a part donated to send over as it helps Simon get it right, we have tried drawings and he than makes a 1st cut which then goes backwards and forwards until right, much better to sends over the part on a non return basis - job done.

Air vents

Still waiting for more responses to my previous question i assume those that want air vent covers want them to go around the vent not cover the front of it

Chest of Drawers

I liked this comment, made me smile, what about walnut alloys ?

By the way, that rear light looks great with the chrome surround - it really sets the walnut off a treat.

for anyone that wants the rear window blanks for the non electric windows, just order option 21 on the schematic which is the drivers switch with front electric windows only, and Simon will then send the rear window blanks.

He already does these even if not quite clear on the schematic

For me I would prefer the chrome around the vent and not on it, but I'll go with the majority. :lol:

For me too, around air vent covers. Have you included the rear one?

yes i will include the rear air vent and looks like majority want covers to go around the vents.

More developments, new schematic below which includes front and rear lights at £53 for the kit.

There is a space for the chrome surrounds to be added as extras on the next update.

Also below are the vanity mirror covers ( not in the correct shade as yet) these will be available soon and i am getting a price from Simon so watch this space.

There seems to be a lot of developments lately in the walnut additions so do keep up !

The schematic below will not be put on e bay it is currently exclusive to this club.

For anyone with a BMW E46 double din facia, there are 3 sizes with slight differences, i will have some non resined samples shortly of this facia, so if anyone wants a walnut cover for one and would like a set for a test fit on a return basis, let me know. (I havent got them yet though )
