For redoing the seats there is Chris at Posh Leathers in Wood Green as he is currently doing my seats. Interior trim I'd consider painting them gloss black.

Or wrapping them in Gloss Black etc... doesn't look to be too difficult and is a good even finish.
I am considering a full speaker upgrade, I have the DSP but want more clarity! Some components could really transform the sound you get in your car - something for you to consider when installing your new head unit?

Steering wheel looks great

........if you wan't another cheap/little mod to do that transforms the look from the drivers seat then get some silver/chrome dial trims
I did mine way back and they look awsome and are an easy mod to do.

where did you get the headrest screens? i would like to install the screens as well but i am not sure where to get it from. i am also thinking about changing the head unit with either dynovin or hualingan. i have to make sure what options i have on my X before i continue. i should be able to drive it in about a week. i've been away for 7 months in afghanistan and finally heading back home to enjoy my toy. if anyone could give me a good info about the head unit and rear displays i would appreciate it. by the way i have a 52 reg 4.6is. also if there is any leads to find out what options i might have on my system such as dsp etc. i would appreciate it as well. cheers

Headrests are on eBay - think you mean these one's and they're black. Forum member has kindly added details of where to get them:

And the head unit info can be found here:
