You can click 'Go Advanced' at the bottom of the Quick Reply box and click the little picture icon. Go to TinyPic and upload your image, if you haven't already, and copy the image link in to the pop-up box.

Thanks for the guide, I'm really wanting to do this but I've got electric mirrors - has anyone got any great ideas for what do for the plate behind the adjuster? The picture of the mirrors shine through the plastic and if painted, it would be covered up?

AH!! It says that I cant add pictures for some reason.....

 

[P1N3R]

What reason does it say?

 

[crisrik]

[P1N3R]

I thought it was 15 posts to put pictures up?

 

[alcot33uk]

you can order the speaker covers from a stealer andyou can put them roght back.
you will need to take off the door covers

i went to the dealer and they will only sell me the complete door cards..
i am considering making a cover out of mdf or aluminium and spraying the whole door card red..
wot do you think??

 

[crisrik]

i can search for the ordering code..

 

[crisrik]

it sais... not replacement part..
you can only order the full interior
