Another bit done today.
It was off to Prentice this morning for an Airbag recall. The new one sticks out like a sore thumb, but at least there's less of a chance of a face full of it when I'm out for a drive now.
Then this afternoon, it was off to collect a set of Piano Black dash trims & armrests. And a rear ashtray as a bonus!
My passenger armrest had been sprayed in the past & reacted. I had been watching eBay for the most of a year to try and get one to replace it, as it was doing my head in.
I couldn't find one in the right colour & any I did see, were in worse condition than what I had. I had noticed an ad on FB for a set of Cream leather door cards, with black handles, so messaged the guy. He was local and happy to split the cards & trim, so bought the set he had.
It was quite an easy job to swap the lot, although TIL rear couple armrests are longer than Cab ones.... Ah well!!![Face with tears of joy :joy: 😂](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f602.png)
And last but not least, I replaced my broken rear ashtray louvre!
Back to eBay for a couple of rear armrests then....![Grinning face with smiling eyes :smile: 😄](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f604.png)
Next up is a front wheel refurb & I'll get the reg on as soon as my retention doc arrives in the post!![Thumbs up: light skin tone :thumbsup_tone1: 👍🏻](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f44d-1f3fb.png)
