Added a airbag wheel yesterday, from a metro i found in my local scrappy. (well thats a lie, i nicked the wheel from a rover 25) and got the loom from the metro. Only thing im missing is the fuse/fusebox. Dont know if any of you could enlighten me what im looking for fuse wise, and if i need that yellow box thats shown in the guide.

I plugged the loom into the hole where it fits and clipped the fuse bit on. Heres the result:

You should get a wheel with radio controls! I made the conversion to one and it was quite easy really.

Will it work even thought my headunit didnt say on the box if it worked with steering controls? Thats what put me off?

You will have to make 2 wires and get an adaptor cable.
Check out the guide on the 'How to' section.

The B-pillar covers came from a member off here, i think they exist on some luxurious models and maybe a few gti's/gta's?

I have them on the car now:

I have also re-done my A-pillar covers:

Also found a rover 25 mirror and added it, i can see everything now!

PLUS: these bits are drying as of now!

can you see:

Im working on that! Not sure if its worth pulling down however.

I was thinking of dying it like i did the carpet! but that would require everything being covered and masked up!

Grab Handles on, sunvisors on. Interior lamp surround done and on:

Really want to dye the roof lining, but i have no idea how the dye will react. i think i might take a spray bottle to the scrappy and test it.
More updates to come.

Skirts were a bastard to get perfect:

This heat gun assisted me greatly on time, and hardening that paint!

but here they are, smooth as a varnish table!
