Hi,
Mine was the plastic walnut until I changed it to real walnut, very much like stewarts, except I now have a walnut and black leather steering wheel .

Oh and black leather seats with light grey centre panels.

Right Guys I've took the switch trim off where my heated seats and cruise control switches are so is this the cable that would operate the rear blind?

No, I don't think that is the one, it should be green!

There looks to be a green one right at the back? Just unclip the switch panel and pull the whole lot forward and you should be access the loom.
