Next install is a bit of Alcantara












As I was doing all the interior in black I could not leave the small bits that couldn't get  trim in white so I painted them black







I have a few more pictures which I will upload later of the alcantara



The black paint was out so I also painted the backs of the headlights black

I've got loads of pro audio power cable in the shed from my cars old install... Might have to copy you for the starter, battery and alternator setup, great idea.

Looks smart and love the work you're doing on the interior!... Top work, can't wait to see the finished result. :afro:

The upgrading of the cables helps loads for an install but can also help the running of the car in general.

Thanks mate  :smiley:

That's why I've already got the cable, from my last install.

I've not long rewired the whole car but like for like.... the heavy duty's don't look too good and I intended to use something better, never thought of using what you have and i've got the cable sat in the shed doing nothing!... Might do mine on Friday!  :cool:

Ok now that the lights were black from the back it was time to smoke the headlights, indicator, dummy & fog lamps.
I used bd's headlight tint film this is much darker than some other films out there
(we stock this at all times 12"x24" for £19.99 + p&p)




As all the lights were stripped out I added a 501 bulb holder with a orange smd bulb to each indicator which I wired up to the side lights which were also changed to orange.
