Default Bits wanted - Dorset UK

Good morning Gents,
Hopefully my pic of my XF has come up at last ???

Looking for a few parts here,
1 - A Drivers side Belt Buckle (lives next to centre console) lol
2 - Amber front side indicator lenses
3 - headlamp rubber back cover, one of mine fell off some place
4 - where is the pollen filter on a RH drive XF ?
5 - How difficult is it, ordamage risky removing the engine cover to change the air filters ?

Any help please appreciated.

On e-bay i found a fab sporty gear **** to replace the cheap looking stock item if any ones interested, looks like its meant to be there and classy too,
Additionally I located a complany that does an assortment of self adhesive trim that makes the centr console look soooooooo much better than the cheap tat stock parts....
Halfords also sell some excellent chrome self adhesive letters to pesonalise my motor with my initials...

Im keen to find some owners near me ---- or far, to swap fone numbers to share knowledge ??

Regards to all

Grant B

Some of us like our 'cheap tat stock parts' and would not stoop to sticking on cheap looking Mactac stickies, each to there own though.
That is not the way to win friends and influence people though.
LOL

You said we had cheap looking parts and I said stickies look cheap.
I said each to their own and you get shirty and say you'll go to another sandbox.

You could probably find some really cool looking stick on vents for your crossy in the ricer forums!! Might even have wood grain to match the dash?

I did find a Black Marble stick on for all of the silver console bits which looked very nice and a deap resin finish.
Also on e-bay a decwnt gear **** that had a forward rake and chromed sides...
My only objection to the current silver conaole covers is the sun reflects off them and is not nice to drive with..
The stickons give a more luxurious finish in the black which matches the rest of the black dash n seats etc.... gotta say, the quality of the dash, doors n seats is fab, and i love this car :-).

No need to trash something just because it's not your flavor.. I personally don't mind my dash color at all.
