Griff - mind me asking exactly what you did on the interior lighting?

Good looking car - I'm still trying to convince the mrs on the rationale in modifying an £40 000+ car...Banging Head

Mate just changed all of the interior 501s for true white OSRAMS - changes the yellow tinge to a brilliant white.
Don't forget the footwells as well Smile

Next mod due to be started on Tue evening Smile

Tell the Mrs you're needing to personalise !

Any changes in the mood-lights?

I'll keep on convincing the Mrs...Mr. Green

To be honest I've been so busy with work I have not had time to look at them. I reckon they might require some centre console removal not that it's a problem lol

Completed the replacement waist finisher task tonight Smile

Task: Replace Brunel waist finisher with a gloss black replacement

[Image: Brunelback_zps24652aa9.jpg]


Remove the interior boot plastic fasia using trim tools. It is affixed using pop on plug fittings. You will then see four bolts which require removal using a deep socket set. unplug the boot lock/wire harness. Move to the outside of the boot and pull off the waist finisher and unplug the remaining part of the wiring harness.

Now that the waist finisher is removed you will need to now unclip the wiring harness from the waist finisher housing and also pop out the boot lock and number plate lights by using a small screwdriver to push out the clips on the sides of each part. Both these parts and the wiring harness need to be fitted to the replacement waist finisher.

Before refitting the new waist finisher back onto the car ensure all wiring has been plugged back in and also test it by turning your lights on. Once you are happy push the waist finisher back into place and refit the bolts and interior boot cover on the inside. Next stand back and admire the new black gloss waist finisher!

I think you should be investing in some Black wrap next, strikes me that roof is just begging to get wrapped, you might even have some left over for the mirrors.

If he keeps going the whole car will be black soon (with red calipers ofcourse)! Laughing

Loving this thread.
Griff, any ideas how much the roof wrap would cost??
