For comparison, here is the 5 speed version (in silver) that I have in my WRX. Again, from the dealer, same price I think (but not sure).

Ikea (I think)

Its actually the stuff, I think, that you are meant to put in your cutlery drawers....

I had a roll of it that I had never used and cut it down to size (I could actually do it again as I did it fairly roughly the first time). I also put some in the cup holder type thing behind the hand brake.

To be honest, it is a bit more rigid than I would have liked it to have been but its does the job until something much better/cooler comes along. But the colour looks great IMO (my WRX is blue) and it does his job.

Thumbs up for the gear **** - must pull my finger out and get down to the dealer and order one.

And for the anti-slip matting - I think that's got to be one of the best looking additions I've seen and fancy that it doesn't cost 75 quid from a dealer or such like. Well impressed!

Nigel - that sounds like the stuff.....IIRC, it was quite a big roll...but I can't imagine it was very expensive.

Lol

I think I have a little bit left



Let me know how much you want here or via email and I'll see what I can do (will probably try and do something tomorrow).

There is a fair bit if anyone else wants a strip/some. Again, email as per profile and I will get back to you.

Just to add, it would probably be fairly easy to cut strips a couple of inches wider than the storage bit in front of the gear stick and send those off.

That way you should have more than enough I would have thought, allowing for a couple of 'mistakes' .

Just a thought, happy to give you whatever size you want......
