absolutely stunning mate.. looks so factory. Well done!

Quick question that I couldnt find an answer to;

Why are there window switches on the centre console? They'd be there on a Sapph because of the rear windows but not on this?

I also wondered this but guessed they are just there to fill in the gaps until the console is smoothed etc?

Awesome car.
