yup basically. Although allow me to add a bit. When its cleaned, wait 5 minuites for it to dry and do its stuff, clean the seat with a damp clean cloth, wait for that to dry, apply the dye (gliptone is best) to the area, do it a few times if necessary in small layers, leaving a bit of time between layer. Let the the colour dry for 24 hours, its best to leave it alone. After its completley dry, you may wish to add any gloss, or colour matcher also supplied in the box, i didnt need to, after that wait about an hour. Then apply the conditioner all over.
Once the colours back in if you look after the leather there is no reason for it to loose the colour again, so every month condition it and keep it clean. Dont ever use alcohol wipes on leather it dries them out, son of a gun is no good either, it needs to be cared for correctly. It looks great when its in good nick, you shouldnt need a sample match for black leather as much as cream leather.

so i have got this so far:
- instruction manual and leather cover
- silver handbrake button
- courtesy lights
- wooden trim
- wing mirrors
- all the door cards
- back seats (not in good condition)
- all electric window switches, and ill refurbish the drivers one tonight.
- MFD
- seat belts all black and working
- all the speakers
i tried to pull off the back bumper, undone the bolts but its still not coming off. is there a clip somewhere?
you can have the mudflaps yes, but ill need to check the condition. And the foglights if i can get them off.
Its also got a set of immaculate bridgestone tyres on steel wheels real good thread depth, i suppose i could put them on gumtree.
Remember the car im breaking is the BHZ reg car, not the USB one. Its a 2000 hdi 110.

im breaking it as quick as possible, then scrap it, to buy this new shed.
So i have you down for the flap round the handbrake, is that the front flat bit, or the back spring loaded bit? I can do both. then when i get to the front ill let you know more about the fogs, which seem to be a bit foggy at the moment.

FP, the numberplate is also a UK personalized plate - you could potentially sell the registration on to someone in the UK as well. I've never had a car with one of those (and I don't want one myself) so I don't know how you would go about selling it as far as the DVLA is concerned, but there's money to be made on that plate, I'm sure.

Good idea but :the car wouid have to be taxed and have a valid mot to be able to sell the plate,
tbh theres no value in it anyway you can pick plates up like that for around £150 ,
