OOOOhhhhh a dial with green and red on either side.

An adjustable boost I take it.

Couldn't you have mounted it on the blanked out switch :P:rofl:

Oops, that's a bluetooth handsfree. It didn't really fit properly on the blank switch.Thanks for noticing it but I meant the "Octavia" dechroming :thumbup:

How did you de-chrome that? Did you just scratch it off?

I used a penknife to get most of the "chrome" off and then washed it with one of those dish scrubbers to clean off the rest. The lettering wasn't left with any scratch marks and TBH looks better in the flesh than in the photo

i like your thinking, chrome my ***!(that isn't a request by the way)

No offence, but is that the male equivalent of the suggestion in a worman's mag to clean telephone buttons with a cotton bud dipped in meths. Life's too short. Still, if you are happy with your achievement, who am I to detract from it? ;)

Can't help wondering what your next little mod will be though... like painting each letter as rainbow ROYGBIV? :party::)

There was a method in my madness. I took the flasher unit apart because it started acting the b*ll*x. Contacts cleaned and works perfectly again, so I was on a bit of a roll. Now explain this cotton bud thing to me again. :rofl::rofl:

OK, makes sense if you really did do the flasher unit first :devil:

Cotton buds have stayed around for about 50 years on the baby shelves despite the fact that you are never supposed to poke anything in your ears, so people must be using them for other uses - I know I do. Gotta use the proper Johnson's ones though since the cheapies fluffily disintegrate.

Oh well, you'll thank me one day, or not... :sofahide:

:rofl:
