   I want to colour code the dash as ive seen some pics on here and think it looks quite good (air vents, speaker covers etc.) but i have no idea how to do it what paint to use etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

   Been searching for a guide on how to remove the vents and centre console, or is it as straight forward as to prise the vents off with a screwdriver... and just undo the screws on the console?
   
   Thanks
