[PAH]

Has anyone here colour-coded the interior trim of their car themselves? My car is arctic silver, and the rear section of the centre console (which you can hardly see) and the door pull bars are both painted to match the silver colour. However, the main part of the centre console (where the window and heated seats switches are) is just black plastic. I'm really keen to colour this arctic silver, but is it an easy job - I don't want the paint to start flaking off in 6 months?

If so, how do you remove this part of the trim to spray it? I can see a screw under the rubber mat right at the back of the lockable cubby box, and there are 2 more under the ash-tray. Can anyone give me advice on what else is needed to remove this please? Whilst I am doing this, I may do the same to the platic trim around the instruments and the fascia around the climate controls/heater vents etc. Again, any advice?

I would also like to install rear speakers if possible. I have the CDR-32 system installed, but it only has front speakers on top of the dash. I have the windstop installed, so have the cubby with sliding doors behind the seats. Is it possible to install speakers in the gaps either side, just behind the top of the seats? Will additional wiring be required, as I know some cars are fitted with rear speakers, and I'm hoping all cars have the same loom?

Oh, and one other thing (sorry to babble on!) - I'm still after the clear front lenses. Can the projector style lenses used for the Xenon system be purchased for normal halogen bulbs? I like the projector lens style (as opposed to the normal huge headlight), but don't really want to go all the way to Xenons if I can help it!

Thanks in advance.
