Jason,

In that case I do have the high capacity battery.

Cool pic Shude hehe I still feel cheated over the airbag light :p j/k (I think I feel more cheated over that poxy credit card holder in the glove box).

I can't make my mind up on the chromed shiftgate frame, I think if I went for that then I'd have to fit those chrome surrounds that Koolvin fitted to his air-con dials (as detailed by K. on BenzSport). I guess you can't get a chrome surround for your climate control eh?

No.

But if you check the pic below, it's an exact single-DIN size, so if there is a single DIN chrome surround then I could get one for the C/C console and also the head unit.  Anyone seen anything like that for sale?

It makes it look a bit more space-age, you know?

It can also tell you some very interesting things, like the exact temp of the engine, the temp of about 10 different places in the engine bay, mostly aircon components, the speed of the vehicle in kph etc, about 20 different readings in total in a special hidden menu :biggrin:

...now back to the single DIN sized chrome frame search...

Shude,

Would you class this as too tacky/ricey??

"It's New, It's Blue, It Flashes ! Truly wonderful, this Neon Dancing Frame fits around your head unit and the Blue Neon pulsates to the sound. Looks fantastic especially at night. Plugs in to cigarette lighter or can be hard wired. Fits all DIN size units. Fitted in minutes."

It's a blue neon design lighting surround, not chrome granted...

Thanks for looking :biggrin:

I've not found anything worthwhile yet, but my Dad's a craftsman-extrordinaire, maybe he could help me bend some stainless wire into a rectangle shape, that might look ok.  It was just an idea anyway.
