There are loads of chrome trims around. I've seen switch surrounds, radio surrounds and even cup holder surrounds. I suppose it's all personal preference.

***Rusty2009*** · 5:th-May-2015, 09:57:57

Yeah I've seen most them not seen the above until today tho, most are on aliexpress.

**tucpal** · 5:th-May-2015, 10:18:07

they dont look bad at all as there not in your face i like them
but not a fan of all the other stuff that is around

That's quite nice! Is it a hard/expensive job to change rear windows to electric?

**cornishtaz** · 5:th-May-2015, 19:37:33

I like them as they'll match the vxr,sport and epb buttons. But I only need 3.

Not too bad just the cost involved in getting all the parts.

They also do them for the steering wheel switches,

Is there a thread for how to do it and all pets needed?

***Rusty2009*** · 5:th-May-2015, 20:35:08

There is some info here http://www.vxoc.org.uk/forum/Thread-Manu...conversion and there is also another link to another thread in there.

I was gonna do this for Lewis but swapped cars so a how-tos not been done yet.

You will need to request a VCI also once it's all fitted.

Tonto · 5:th-May-2015, 20:36:12

Ah right damn vci codes lol. Will work out costs and see if it's something I can afford lol. Thanks mate

I have got a set which i havent used yet. I would'nt get them to be honest as they look cheap and have a small piece of double sided tape to stick them down. They will come off easily.

I was on about the window switch ones.
Waste of time. Can you send a picture of them if you like

Would be nice to here from you if you do

**cornishtaz** · 25:th-Jul-2015, 16:17:09

I was going to get some of the window ones, might not bother now

**HM11ESH** · 25:th-Jul-2015, 17:18:34

This is how they look

**cornishtaz** · 25:th-Jul-2015, 17:33:22

They don't look too bad are the plastic or metal

**HM11ESH** · 25:th-Jul-2015, 17:37:52

They are actually aluminium.

You can buy the set off me if you still want.

PM me if interested

**tucpal** · 25:th-Jul-2015, 17:37:58

They should stick with the 3m but you will have to use cleaning wipes to get them clean and free of any dirt or cleaning product residue

**cornishtaz** · 29:th-Jul-2015, 20:51:17

Got the trims off HM11ESH and fitted them this evening, I'm actually quite surprised they look really good not quite as shiny as the chtome on the other switches.

**HM11ESH** · 29:th-Jul-2015, 21:00:04

That actually looks decent. Better than what I thought.

I had them sent to me in error so didnt bother putting them on.

Glad you liked them
