Air Vent and Gear Surround

[Deleted member 12175]

Can anyone take some pictures or got any pictures of the Air vent and gear surround in Chrome and Aluminium.

I am undecided which one to get.

Opinions welcome. Pictures would help me to decide

I reckon chrome is the best

Thanks

The Aluminium pic looks a bit crap but i get the idea.

Do you have the Vents with the painted air director lever. If you have is it painted Met silver?

My vents aren't painted, they are the orignal seat accessories, should be on the seat.com site somewhere. Only the rings are chrome, not the direction lever.

Have you got any pictures of your airvents as i want to compare. If you havent could you take some pictures for me if you could. Would be appreciated

brushed look better i had them on my 1.2 and have just the gear surround on my fr, and they look loads better than chrome, the chrome looks a bit plastic compaired to the aluminium ones.

Looks like its the brushed ones then. Even though the door handles are chrome.

I see you can order brushed surround for the centre console but not Chrome

I do mean round the radio! Im going for the brushed ones even though they are more expensive. £28 i have been quoted for the kit of air vents and gear surround

 

[gazjones]

thats not bad they are 22 for airvents and 10 for surround so good price.

 

[Deleted member 12175]

My dealer said they did a kit so buy a kit and its cheaper

Get someone to fit them for you because it's a pain in the arse!

I fitted my ibiza with chrome air vents and gear surrounds. Bit tricky need lots of patience as parts can break easily

 

[depresion]

I was quoted almost £30 for the vents and over £10 for the gear surounds by a local Seat dealer but they also refuse to admit that half the parts on seat.com's optional accessories list exist.

Fitted my Alu gear surround and air vents this weekend. The air vents took a lot of patience and time but they are worth the effort and stress.

Fez Boy - FYI it seems as though you have your heated mirrors on all the time judging by the pictures you posted?
