Walnut for me too, also whip out the Door cards and slap some ZT ones in - Makes a huge difference, especially if your Car is a light colour

Light oak looks really nice against the black trim.

The opinion that there is a certain 'prestige' with walnut makes the decision more difficult in relation to the light oak I guess.
If you are only changing the dash then light oak suits

That's going to be far too dark for my liking.

Eventually there will be sandstone seats and door cards.
