Just an update on my Post #479, here is the finished article finished & fitted....

Before. (Old Gaitor):





After. (New Leather Gaitor):





I've now ordered the Handbrake Gaitor - I just wanted to make sure of the quality & fit first on the Gearshift first - I'm happy!

Very nice. If that is from supplier topgaitors, I have the same on mine, handbrake too, and the leather cover for the armrest lid. Recommended.

A bit worrying Bill. Is that two specks of dust by the gaitor, at about 10 o'clock, or is it camera flash?

Drove my Ronda today. (I'm feeling guilty - shouldn't I be repairing the cooling fan or VIS motors or manifold or...its ok, I've got over that feeling now...)

Ha, Ha, Ha.... Damn! Missed that.........

What's even more distressing is that there is what looks like a piece of leaf on the driver's side rubber mat!!!
