OK, so the wood trim is not to everyone's taste, but I love it and wanted to maintain the classic car look. I wired in some red LEDs behind the chrome vent balls and spliced them into a source for the dash light.
I used Milk caps which fit perfectly as center caps and look cool red.
I think the stripes set the shape off nicely and define the curves of the MX5, especially when I added black pin-stripes
I also wired in some red LEDs into the door sills and tapped them into the internal light source, so that they come on when the door opens.
It creates an ambient glow off the chrome.
Slide and recline bucket seats fitted...
I fitted at the back rear of the seats to add a little more light to make night driving more fun...
Dials...
Some night time views..
