Loving the hand brake cover geez.Ive had one in my room since the players weekend really need to fit it this weekend.

Did you just prize the flap under the handle open and slide the old one off then repeat to refit the new one?.

Get a passate wiper for sure,de wiper does look clean as but it does and half get dirty back there.

Yes and no to your question. I prized what i thought was the whole flap off of the old one, turns out i only got the leather outer bit :oops: nothing 45 minutes with a stanley knife and a pair of side cutters couldn't fix. :P

Just keep your standard chrome push bit and that clips in snug after. Love it, really suits it IMO.

Im keeping a rear wiper, couldn't deal with a button in the car that did nothing!

Needs 1 more big clean and wax before winter, then it'll officially hit winter mode. Months of cleaning in the freezing cold.....joy. :(

Will put up a pic when they arrive, they were £62 for a set delivered with tyres from ebay, so don't get your hopes up! :oops:

Gonna spray them a different colour though, just to keep the BBS' nice for next summer.

Winter wheels are there to serve a purpose at the end of the day and that's to keep your bling bling wheels looking good for the summer :) £62 is an absolute bargain no matter what they look like
