Just thought I’d share some piccys of my interior... just cleaned the seats with flash magic erasers & they have come up beautifully!!
I actually thought the cream parts were beige turns out they are cream hahaha

And I cleaned them when I got the car!!!
Just shows you how good these little sponges are! I’ve done everything! Including the steering wheel again..... it’s cream not beige [emoji23]

forgot to include my shark fin anti [emoji23]

I thought you were changing the stereo?

I will be at some point no point wasting a touch screen [emoji23] I’m just enjoying the blue & me for a bit longer! It’s basic but Siri works with it!

I tell you what’s good stuff. Elbow Grease. You can buy it in B&M and I’ve seen it in various other places. It’s only £1 a bottle and it’s brilliant.

Aldi do own brand 'magic sponges'
At 1/4 of the 'flash rate'

Oh now you both tell me!! [emoji23]

I wouldn't use those earser pads too often however they are midly abrasive so now it's all clean stick to regular cleaning stuff every few weeks and some leather feed/fabric protector

Indeed!! It was a one off I was actually cleaning a leather handbag then the lightbulb moment happened [emoji23] I nourished the leather after with balm that has sunscreens in and finished with leather barrier that is in the gucci leather kit that came with the car!
My seats look sweet!

Reviving a very old thread here (I was searching the site for Gucci vs GQ Edition differences having noticed something interesting about the US spec), but just noticed you'd done the shark fin thing too. Did you use a boosted shark fin, and if so how's your radio reception? Mine's about the same as the duff standard aerial so I've gained nothing except for improving the looks slightly.

Yeah it’s boosted so wired in …my digital reception is 100% at all times
I got it on eBay and it was cheap too!

Being male, I wouldn‘t know the difference between cream and beige

'And I thought it was ivory...

Definitely Ivory I get confused too but definitely not beige

have you added footwell lights in your car? I did but I’ve removed them as they were wired to the accessory plug wiring and on all the time when driving
I’m trying to connect to the dome light I assumed the red & black wire .. that gives me power but won’t cut out with the dome ?! Any ideas?

Sorted it 3rd attempt lucky

Do tell us how please.

Not something I'd want to do (it'd spoil the fun of fumbling around in the dark) but I'm always interested in electrical mods, so seconded from me

2 long wires (obviously) I ran under header from dome light down behind A post & comes out under passenger footwell
Unplug the dome light & give yourself plenty of wire to work with
I soldiered each wire the the reverse of the domes bulb holder so on the outer side of the bulb holder (note what side is +)

Put the dome back in place BUT DONT connect the plug yet
gently take up the slack on wires
Now run a section of wire (taped in teaser) from passenger footwell to drivers give yourself plenty of cable just in case
Soldier your light wires to the wire and tape I’ve used soldier shrink & black teaser tape
Now tuck wire behind carpet or secure as you see fit

On the passenger side soldier shrink all wires together with light wires and teaser tape

Once wiring is completed and taped no risk of shorts .. plug dome back in open a door & voila!! You now have footwell lights that work the same as the dome
I used these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LED-Inte...=p2349624.m2548.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

I have one in my dome & I retrofitted the other 2 for the foot wells by clipping off the attached faux bulb stripping the wires and connecting
They also have sticky backs so easy to place

You could probably use these too https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LED-Stri...=p2349624.m2548.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

However in my experience they work well in the boot but tend to pop leds when lit when the engine is running

Working well & no issues
