Hello everyone!
Im in the process of doing the Center consol switches and dash in the ZS in a different colour of LED.
Would anyone be interested if i could come up with a kit, which would include the neccessary buttons, bulbs etc to change there dash colour?
I had done this in a previous ZS and it went down well.
Another thing i have done is a bi-xenon projector for the headlights. I have 2 members who are getting a set done. And im hoping to have them done soon i promise!
Again is there any MK2 owners who would be interested in this?
Both will be done on an exchange basis but possibility of members supplying there own bits.
Just an idea?
I'd be tempted by both ideas to be honest, especially the headlights.

Headlight might be of interest to me Stephen coat dependant obviously.

I have a set of those xenon headlights for sale if anyone wants a set right now.
How haven't you sold those yet matt? I had loads of interest when I sold them to you!
I've sold a couple since too
Seems like everyone is doing the headlights now! I've been making and selling projector headlights for a while now.
Most people are cheapskates though :)

Headlights will be £60-70 on exchange basis. Depending if im supplying hid kit too, may be higher to include this.
Dash will be for mk1 aswell subject to the leds being available
Well I'm already in line for the headlights so would be interested in the dash lights too :)
Cracking price for the headlights! Others I've been considering are from £150 to £250!!

I dont get how people can charge that for them!!! Thats just ripping people off.

I charge £150 for mine which I think is fair for the cost and time involved.
£250 is way too much in my opinion
For £60 I know you won't be making much so I'd charge more, no point doing it for peanuts :)

Is the £150 on an exchange basis?

Is the £150 on an exchange basis?
Don't think so.
The ones im selling arn't you get the lights I don't want yours in return.
Is the £150 on an exchange basis?
No that's just the price to buy them. I will buy your old lights in return though if you want to sell them
Ebay item number: 321641939249
I want the headlights, but I would have to split them again anyway... So might as well just do the work myself if I can find the bits to do it :)
Question though... Legality? Mot?
Be interested in the dash kit too... For mk2 180, with ATC possibly...

My Mot tester said they are fine for MOT.
Im going to post two seperate threads soon and il see what colour combinations people want for the dash.
Might need to specify (with pics?) which switches etc would be done and whether it includes ATC too

All my Dash buttons are now completed, ATC and heated seat switches are in the process of being done.
I have all the neccessary bits and bobs here to do so. One issue is the background for the clocks, it has the Orange filter which is going to be a pain to do :/
Progress is being made :)

I sanded the Orange areas, then replaced it with a Blue filter made from the same stuff that is used on theatre spotlights
