Thanks James, mgf mirror is something I've thought if in the past too but I've never looked into it fully or looked into the wiring side of things, is it quite an easy mod to to? I want a black Xpower gear knob but haven't seen one up for sale recently that doesn't seem rather over priced to me. Not sure what they are worth but £40 - £50 2nd hand is something I'm not going to pay. Like the oe one so would stick with that. Also got 45 rear lights with tinted indicators, had thought of wrapping my oe rears with laminx to give a all over darker look but not got around to it yet.

I think it makes all the difference and should cost you the price of a can of hammerite and a rubber bung.
Want to do calipers but always get stuck with the colour I'd go with. Also love the idea of removing the rear wiper but my other half drives it more than me and wasn't so keen on the idea. Said what if I can't see when reversing. Didnt want to get into the whole being daft conversation.

Didnt know they were different to be honest, is it a straight swap over then?

Do the mgf mirror lights work as courtesy lights too when you unlock & open the car too?

Cheers for the suggestions guys
