| I've not come across this site before Bob - what do you know about them? Unrelated to the topic of cheap back-boxes, I had a quick look through their catalogue - impressed to discover that they are listing Chrom Design parts, not previously available from a UK supplier! :o) |

| I found them ages ago and bookmarked it and had a look on it again today. Some nice new bits. I liked the chrome gear surround for the Mk1 Centre Console. Havent ordered anything but the product range is growing. |

Good site :-) SF |

| just for comparison: B&G charged £75 for a replacement standard rear system (+vat probably but bill included service, cat, pads etc). I see the link says 'to replace standard' with no claims to being special in any way. |

| >> >> http://212.42.182.172/proddetail.asp?prod=MGF173 << How would you fit this though?<< With difficulty! ROFL! Seriously, you'd have to prise the instrument pack apart (removing the perspex cover). Another one of those jobs that sound simple in theory, but a right pain in the buttocks when you come to attempt it... As an aside, I've always wanted chrome rings for the instruments - rather like the R75 et al. This Chrom Design option is a step in the right direction, but a little OTT. Interesting site, thanks Bob. And thanks to John for pointing out that the same parts can be had cheaper from B&G! |

| Most of the chrome products appear to be Chrom Design parts. All have been listed on th Chrom Design site for months ... so not that new ... Gaz |
