What tools do you need for this? Is it difficult to do ? Very nice.

Blunted needle, strong thread, crochet hooks full set, medic grade suture kit tools and a huge heap of time and patience. Id recommend keeping plasters close by if you think you might stab yourself! Didnt happen to me but it can happen!!!

Thanks!

My airbag wiring has arrived today but wondering if the black gloss or brushed chrome buttons/trim looks better?

Suggestions?

Decided to keep the gloss black.

Hope you like the finish!!  :smiley:

So this was my car before any interior mods:



So along with custom steering, the ED35 knob and handbrake , gloss black radio/climate surround, stainless steel pedals.
After everythings in (Leathers to come and I know it needs a clean too!) :

Thanks everyone! Really pleased. Am still in 2 minds about the gloss black or brushed chrome buttons though.  Question of going with the gloss black theme or contrasting with silver

I did the surrounds for the climate and radio myself. The buttons are Genuine Golf R20 ones.
