MK1 Leon FR TDI, Stealth Edition [PREPPING FOR SALE]

[M20FES]

Ok started converting the interior from the standard FR grey\cream trim to the LCR satin black trim as mentioned in another post. Ive got the A, B, C pillars in, the grab handles, light\alarm sensors, interior mirror, sunvisor clips, door seals and sat-nav center console surround.

I cant use the LCR roof lining cause i have a sunroof so iam either going to fabric dye it satin black or get some genuine black leather that matches the seats and use spray adhesive and stitching to bond it to the original roof lining.

Still need to get the following:

black W8 light with sunroof switch - 1J0 947 106 B41 - £33.24

black vanity lights - 3B0 947 109 A B41 - £7 each
and sunvisors with electric shutters for vanity lights

Looking ace - can I ask what they have cost?

these are the dealer prices. I got all my pillars and dash surround from the dealer. I then found LCR interior trim kit on ebay for £200 of which i took the grab handles, alarm sensors and sunvisor hooks from, and then put the roof lining, sunvisors and pillars that i didnt need back on ebay to make some of the money back, the guy wouldnt split the set.

dealer price for a pair of the light\alarm sensors come to nearly £200. was lucky to get them in the set i bought for that.

Great motor mate, some really nice tasteful mods in there.

 

[M20FES]

Fitted a VW Golf MK4 3rd middle sunvisor. Looks abit out of place colour wise until i get the black sunvisors, W8 light and sort out the roof lining.

Looks nice similar mods to mine. More in the way of sound but less in the way of handling and power. Bought mine off a member 3 months ago and hd did all the work. Just the right amount in my opinion. Some people really over do it and you've done well here. I like them looking fairly standard but with subtle and effective mods.

Started on the roof lining project today. Removed the roof lining and used some Simply Spray Upholstery Paint- Midnight Black and the results were turd. Used a complete can and was patchy and the paint was spitting and wasn't setting very well on the fabric so gave up on that idea.

I let it dry and got 2 meters of black faux leather and a can of bostik spray adhesive. Cut it to size with some over hang and stuck it down and rubbed the creases out. Its looking pretty good and a good match for my leather seats. Tomorrow i need to cut the rest of the holes out for the lights, grab handles etc and finishing trimming and tucking the edges of the lining.

Next step is to remove the sunroof slider and covering that then re-installing everything including all the ABC pillars. more pics to follow as i make more progress.

it's on standard springs, wan't to lower it but ground clearance is not good so holding out at the moment.
