Hello all this is my first post. I have put a deposit down on a my55 V6 HSE in Java black. I was wondering if it is possible to change the interior detailing from the silver to a piano black. Has anyone done this, if so where did they get the new parts from and was it difficult to do it? I know i shouldn't be thinking about changing things with the car before i even have it, but there you are

Changing the dash trim is easy and parts are on ebay. I think the real problem is the door cards - you have to buy new ones and these are not cheap, but fairly easy to do. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Thanks for the quick reply, it is much appreciated. I will have a look on ebay.

I have done this with my MY08. I did all the doors including the door pulls. the hockey sticks all the way to the cooler lid. The coin tray under the Satnav,the four aircond vents and also the steering wheel horns. New door cards are not required. If the cards are the base model ones, ie black vinyl with the green badge. All you have to do is remove the card from the door, snap off the melted plastic lugs holding the top part to be replaced, slide the new piano black piece in and it is secured by the screw under the badge, replace badge with a black one and it looks gtreat.
I got my pieces from overfinch - it wasn't cheap. I'm sure you will do better on ebay. Good Luck

Hi doubleg, have you got any pictures of the piano black interior? Thanks!

Hey Kluk
Sorry the vehicle has moved on and replaced with MY10 TDV8.
There were pics on Overfinch's site, but they seemed to have changed it.
What made it look so good was the fact that the door inserts plus the door pulls were done and then by the time you do the 4 aircon vents hockey sticks and steering wheel horns and also the tray in front of navsat - all on black leather. Really fantastic
