Oi! Me first. Grin

In short supply it seams. Not exactly an emergency though.

Had the centre console out the other day. Dont remember any spare plugs or similar to plug into. I suppose the button comes with a bit of wiring?

And while we are on the subject, does anyone know where to look for the connector at parcel shelf end?

It is plug and play, you simply remove the old blank switch and replace with the new one. Even my 3.2 ex police has the stuff behind the dash for it. You don't need to remove anything, just take out the blank switch and put the new one in. The parcel shelf and blind should come with a plug, you simply plug that into the plug in the boot. It should be right at the back, on the left hand side at the top. It's as easy as that.

Nov 2009 at 20:28 As joshwyatt says, it's plug'n'play, and a doddle to fit. Remember you don't need a blind from a Facelift, they are all the same, just the switch that's different. You pull out the bottom left blank & insert the switch.

I'm a bit dissapointed that the colour of the switch is different but i may darken with age

I've just been to see the other rear blind and its cream but its in my local scrapyard so there is no way of telling if the blind still works and the rear window has been put through Sad

I asked the bloke in the scrappy how much for the mini facelift leather seats and he said £150 Grin

I said have you not heard of Ebay they go on there for about £50 and they are clean and dry he just shrugged his shoulders, plank.

Ok. Note to all, i'm after a post 2000 cream blind and shelf with bose and button in dark grey. Bare in mind they are 60 new.
PRE facelift button is no good as its completely different. Needs to be as the pics above.

Ttfn.

Oh i see.

Re colour, nah you dont want a cream one mate. Horrible nasty colour. Grey will be fine. Thumbs Up!

But seriously,i think may have narrowed it down too much. Hard enough to find as they are in cream, much less with a bose shelf as well.
Could get away without the shelf i guess, but i wont know exactly where to position it, unless its pre marked? And cutting mine, could easily balls that up.

Same, i thought about doing it, but knew it would look crap! But then again i have managed for 4.5 years without a blind so far Cheesy
