I've had a look on eBay and reckon I can source most/all of the bits from A8parts, but need to make sure that I get everything I need. Apart from the obvious rear parcel shelf with blind, the two door cards with blinds, clips for the door blinds and a switch for the dash, what else do I need? I've come across a 'rear blind control unit', which I assume is required. Any other parts required? What about wiring? Is there much involved? Any help on providing a list of parts or a rough idea of what's involved would be much appreciated.
I'm sure there was a write up on here about it. I have done it but i'm PF so all wires were there so all i needed to do was plug it all in.
I'd think you'd need to run wires from the front to rear but IT would be able to confirm that, if you do then it's carpet up, not difficult but going to take a while. Don't know what the control unit is?
