Title: Leyo bezels
Post by: MjrSharpe on 09 August 2017, 10:34

Hi all. Just got my leyo climate control/ radio bezels. They are made of aluminium and have an o ring inside so they just push over the existing knobs. I think they are an effective mod for the interior.

Cant see images at links posted - presumably because Photobucket no longer provide free third party image hosting.

You'll either need to upgrade your Photobucket account (US $399 to upgrade!) or use an alternative such as Postimage, Imgur or Flickr.

I got caught short on fuel the other day and had to go to a Tescos to get some diesel and seen the car below. I think he started with climate and radio control covers but he obviously caught the bug.

I think subtle mods like yours are the best MjrSharpe. As for that Citroen......why? :sick:. What's with all that wheel arch and door edge trim? And red/orange mud flaps?

Thanks for the replies guys. I got these from ecs in America. The parts themselves weren't too bad, working out at about £35, but it was nearly that again for P and P. They did come quickly however; under a week :)

They look better than I thought they would and appear well made, but, sometimes less is more and I think this is one of those occasions.

It's a pity VW didn't make them out of aluminium in the first place like Audi do :whistle:
