R was the cross over, do you have square head rests or solid ones?

it's late 97R pre-facelift, I fitted mini-facelift projector headlights to confuse the issue ;)

and talking of headrests I've got the 3rd rear centre headrest in the cupboard here so if you want it you're welcome to drop by when you down this way next Kev. :y

(personally i left it out as i think it looks better with 2 and you can see who you've just overtaken better ;))

Not quite that straightforward to fit the audio controls.

Will need new contacter unit, wiring to radio, possible new radio depending on whats fitted.
