I have done one in a facelift car, not to difficult but there are a lot of screws etc. to remove and plugs to disconnect. Never found a video of it being done so had to work it out as we went along.

Yeah, just take it nice and slow, might be worth taking a few pictures as you go along just for reference if needed. If you have the electric steering column make sure you extend and lower it before disconnecting the battery to give your self extra room, don't ask me how I know.

That’s different, I’d looked at the carpet style one’s interested to see how it looks? Also looked at the self adhesive faux leather stitching available from PRC.

I covered mine with a stitched faux leather self-adhesive made-to-measure from Ali Express.
