Busy weekend on the Zed! Couple of questions..

[Danderton]

Hi All

Well spent Saturday giving "Chloe" a full wash and polish

Also used some Autosol to clean the tailpipe up..

Before

And after

Not perfect, but better than they were.

Then as my ally trim in the centre console is quite scratched, a few weeks back I purchased a 2nd hand one from a member on here. So spent my whole afternoon today (Sunday) stripping out the interior just to get the bloody centre ally trim out. Absolutely ridiculous what you have to remove.

Anyway a few hours later and after several cuts to my hands my interior is now in pieces. I bring it all inside and goto screw on my replacement trim. Can you spot the obvious thing I forgot to check in the below picture before I started ripping my car to pieces?

So looks like I won't be using the replacement trim after all as don't really want to drill it. I think I am now going to either paint or wrap the interior trim.

Anyone in need of a spare ally trim by any chance?

I don't think drilling it is that hard... Is the hole not marked on the back of the trim anyway ? Un-cut plastic holes usually are.

If you get the ore cut size hole saw it should be easy?! Especially if it marked on the back.

I had the Sam problem today/yesterday went to fit the new one and noticed it didn't have headlight washers managed to line them up mark them up and chain drill around then file them out. Now you would know

Car look nice and shiny now

From memory there is a template on the back. A Dremel would soon have that sorted out.

Wrap that bad boy... can you send me a 'how to' get the alloy trim off as far as u did, almost there though lots, as u say, of fiddling... CF looks the mutts nutts & u may have seen I was upskilling yesterday (just need door handles in same direction)

I'll email you over the PDF's for taking the interior out Jembo.

Why doesn't it have a sport button hole though? Don't all zeds have them?

2.2 and some 2.0 didn't have sport mode

my 2.0 roadster didn't have a sport button...I suppose it would be quite lackluster on a 2.0 anyway lol

Doesn't really improve performance. Just sharpens up steering and throttle
