Nice pic! I think I like the royal purple piping. Does the stuffed head sit in the pass seat?

That's interesting. I centered mine. Yours looks better placed against the back. Damn you spatial-relationship-man!

:-) Well spotted. I thought they looked a bit better if I lined them up nearer the back since you seldom open your door fully to enter so never actually see the full length of the sill. Also, they just kind of looked right being lined up roughly in line with the position of the seats.

They charge you to go in but its free to get out! :?
Never understood that. Surely they'd make a blooming fortune if they reversed it? :-D

Won't be going to Stoneleigh unfortunately, but I will be traveling down the M4 on Sunday night around 10pm, so if someone can meet me at a convenient location?

Failing that I have another plan....

Just bought a pair of these from US ebay. :)

Not as cheap as the group buy but I wasn't around then. :(

Still, good value though, I think.
