I hated mine to start with, but now I'm rather attached to them !
 
If I bought an Eclipse Blue one, I would've covered them in electrical tape or something to prevent me being blinded or something ;)

If it was me, I'd take the risk like Simon did. Alternatively, I know of a scrapped TDI 130 in York that has Imp Red interior, which means it has black rings.

Click here!

To swap them won't be easy, and will need VAG-COM and a lot of work, I'm sure of it.
 
Don't know if you have gotten enough info for the vent ring mod but here you go anyways: http://rmk.hamk.fi/~konttmi1/seat/mods/ventrings/
I got some tips from toXXin and sprayed mine silver. Quite easy to do after all, but the side rings seemed to be impossible to separate from the outer rings. If you don't have the chrome rings yet, I'd consider spraying the stock ones silver. Looks really good, me thinks.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Thanks again for all the help guys. As it happens i had the vent rings thrown in but not fitted. What a fecking ball ache they were to fit! They are now in (although not properly) and look great. I've also fitted the chrome gear lever surround, a new gear knob, chrome door lock pins, SEAT Sport Strut Brace. I've also got some Momo pedals and rear mudflaps to fit when i've got a minute (possibly this weekend).

Taken some pics but have left the camera at home so it won't be until Monday that i can post them up.
