Cheers!
I've not noticed that the seat backs are different!
Also didnt know the glove box was!
The sound insulation will be going over as will more sound deadening stuff from behind the Mk1 dash before me and my cousin and my friend strip it for a couple of fun track days.
Dunno if the carpet is any higher quality on the Mk1.

Subtle yet lairy?
I'm gonna look into the hatch spoiler.

The early glove box is flocked inside.
I thought the sound deadening was deleted from later cars.
The early 180 seat backs have map pockets.

The mk2 won't have the flocked glove box, it was an early victim of project drive along with the map pockets in the seat backs, the early glove boxes are easy to find, the seat backs not so easy, I'm still looking for a second pair with map pockets

The scrappy Hatch I got my rear head rests and electric windows from may have them then!
I have the flocked glovebox in the Mk1 but not the seat pockets.

It might well do, zt's use the same seat back as the zs so that is another source.

Something else worth having off a facelift 25 or 45 is the Black with chrome ring dash vents, they work much better than the Silver ones in the mk2 zs and zr.

I actually saw some of those in the scapyard today, they were in a car that had its roof cut off by the fire service and unfortunately they had damaged the two outer ones! the centre two may have been fine though!

By the looks of it you have got a decent car, you still get niggles with a new one!
