Pimp my cab!

Postby RollinRanch » Wed Apr 07, 2010 3:31 pm

Love the van, but the cab is shabby, dated and dull - just grey plastic. zzzz zzzz zzzz.....

Seat covers are an obvious quick fix, but can anything be done with the dashboard, steering wheel, etc? Anything other than grey would be nice....

Has anyone fitted these? How hard are they to fit? I am assuming that they are stickers, which could be fun :)

i bought a big sheet of the walnut effect dash and trimmed my mk6 with it, all the removable parts anyway, was a pain in the arse but i was wrapping around funny corners and i have no patience, but looks good!
I don't switch my lights on... I turn the dark OFF!
