I'm not at my pc so i can't give the proper links but for the dials try KMC someone will post a link i'm sure :) :) of funky products. As regards leather there are several routes to go on this the fitting it yourself...as kev..... and getting it done by a pro in ireland...was that you how did it that way cj :?: or like me go to percission triming in england.

IWFTO, pm 'Leather Bandit' (Alan), he can supply bespoke leather interiors (you'll need to fit yourself or organise fitting).

As regards the speedo, do you still have the standard black dials? Someone whos upgraded their own dials might be willing to donate one....

Hey iwf,

there's a group buy on Ftooc for leather retrims, but its a fit it yourself deal. Its a fair bit of work, but you'd save a fair few quid as against getting someone else to fit it for you. Both CJ and myself have gone that route. The quality is pretty good, and you can specify whatever stitching + colours you like, including logos I think.

The guy doing the group buy is on here too, username "Leather Bandit", or just Bandit on ftooc.

If you just want a standard (white on black) kmph dial, you might be able to swap it with someone on ftooc who wants to change their kmph for a mph? Alternatively for white kmc would prob be the way to go.

KMC's website - http://www.kmc-products.co.uk, and for funky product its http://www.funkyproduct.co.uk, for fto parts it'll bring you to http://www.funkystyling.co.uk.

Kev.

Put out a request for a standard manual kph speedo dial and see what comes back!

I don't personally but someone might. Note that you'll end up paying a good few hundred euro extra for fitting. If you wanted to go down that route, you might consider contacting Simon @ Zenith Automotic who will supply and fit, see www.zenithautomotive.com for info. This is the more expensive route but Simons work is top class.
