Job done and 2009 wheel back ond working so many thanks to all who replied (0 lol) Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Only issue is the 2009 Soft Wheels backing plate has a small cut out on the right side where there was not one on the original? You can see it when you get in the car...... Sad

Ok I have been a busy boy today as SWMBO at a kids party....

Fitted the Soft Feel 2009 Steering Wheel thats make all the difference to the driving pleasure, and......

The Half Basket Rack which will feature 4X HID Spots courtesy of Ken on the front bar which is pre-drilled for them. I may or may not carry a spare in the basket as it has a built in hub to attach a wheel with bolts! The Wheel in pictures is just for show...

I wanted the half basket as the D3 features Panaromic Sunroof and I wanted to be able to open the front one fully Cool

Monday may be Spots and Tuesday Tints so we are really moving fast on this project. The way its looking I may be adding a few American Stars to the sides and the bonnet as its starting look US Military Laughing

It looks the business Gaz Cool - is this going straight onto your 'forecourt' or are you going to go play with it for a little bit and get it mucky ?

Note to me, read entire post before replying Embarassed

My Mercedes ML had factory limo tints from the back doors back, so I decided to tint the front doors a little to make it look less like a van. The first 'smoked' tint had a slight green tinge which made the front windows look very green compared to the back windows.

I had them redone in a shade darker which matched better but then it was a pain to drive at night in low lit areas. As your Disco does not have factory tints you don't need to worry about matching the factory colour, but if you do decide to tint the front doors you may find it a problem driving at night.

FYI I drove the ML for 5 years with the front door windows tinted and I was never pulled over.
