I will post pics on how I get on
Any idea the order the trim comes off, Im thinking main radio surround, then climate control and air vents.

Yes, I reckon you would need two people to do it properly and then there's the question of it possibly trapping water on a horizontal surface and damaging the paint like vinyl roofs used to in the 1970s... I will have a think about it once my car has been delivered.

Anyone know the actual part numbers for the trim for the radio, air vents and surrounds?

Looks great. Is that anthracite brushed aluminium? Did you have any trouble getting the trim out of the dash?

Looks even better now with the aluminium exposed.
Top job.
