I think it may be too much to be honest.....
Would there be anyway of wrapping the steering wheel up in alcantara?!
Fabia VRS
I did the steering wheel in my quiksilver. popped the lion badge out and wrapped it all up then stuck the badge back in. shouldnt see why you couldn't do the same on a renault one. I did all the bits in my quiky, glove box, dash trim, parcel shelf, door cards. cost me 40quid and made a huge improvement.
Oh and OP they look mint mate!!!

It took just over half a metre to do all that, with a few mistakes, so I would just get a metre to be sure.
Bugger! i only got half a metre, was gonna do it after this cup of tea.........
Clio182, Mini Cooper 1275
Right then im gonna give it a go now, just gonna do the pillars and the gear knob top( mine is knackered) wish me luck!

Were the A Pillars difficult to wrap?

How difficult are the A Pillar covers to take off, i don't want to brake plastic clips...? Also, what colour are your alarm sensors? Mine are a light grey/beige colour...
I reckon i'll give this a go soon

I see you lurking Martin
Defo think this along with the roof liner could make a HUGE difference.

I've seen other posts of the roof done along with the A post and it does look amazing! Gonna give the A posts a go though...
Are you gonna do yours?

I am very very tempted tbh Martin, I just think it will upclass the interior a good few notches. The light head lining & light plastics up front look gash :dapprove:

Seriously easy to get off..
peel back door seal
use qiute a bit of force to open the first clip at the top
use a finger to push the second clip inwards
and finally begin to manouver the trim up and out of place, there is a another clip at the bottom which is easily unclipped..
My sensors are black but im sure you could find a solution to your beige ones?

Thanks, i'll have to get some alcantara ordered then :approve:

Im going to do it, probably in 2/3 weeks after pay day.

1 metre is enough to do 6-8 A pillars I reckon. Did mine this morning, will take some pics in a bit (although they look spookily similar to those above!).
It doesn't stretch, so cutting it in the right places when you're wrapping it round the pillar is key, so the tension doesn't pull it off the plastic. I used Loctite spray adhesive from Halfords, think it was 6 quid for the can.
I bought it from the eBay guy in this thread, so don't pay much attention to his 10 days handling or whatever, because obviously it turned up a bit quicker than that! Looks awesome, think I'll leave the silver dash inserts alone though. Might get someone else to do the roof lining too, since glue and scissors and stanley knifes aren't my forte

Any pics yet? Would be interested to see what the sides of the centre column look like? How easy was the gear knob to do?
