I just emailed autoparts.com as I am interested in these mods also. Please post if anyone hears any more info. I would like to have leather accents to door panels also. Has anyone done this? It would be nice to break up all that grey/blk.

Great work mdacko!!! I cant wait. Do you know what they are going to be working on? I would love a steering wheel, hand brake, and the arm rests on the doors. This is great news!

Wow a steering wheel cover in burnt orange would be awesome and some door panel accents in burnt orange would look freakin' tight.

Hi all, I have a UK spec Zed coming my way around mid November in alezan leather, I'm looking to swap out the orange gear shift & hard brake lever for black ones. I've already sourced a shift **** in black and I'm looking for a hand brake lever now.

Does anyone know where I can get one? Has anyone replaced theirs? I'm not even sure if the brake lever is the same in RHD?

The wheel i like very much, i also like the hand braked. The shifter i would have to see in person.
If you want to trade your Orange hand brake for my black one, i would do that.

hey guys. autocarparts is still working on the two tone steering wheel cover, and the burnt orange shift boot. Im surprised this actually worked, but I guess I harassed them long enough. On a side note, if anyone in Europe would like to trade their ebrake for mine, or sell me yours, PM me or email mdacko@umich.edu

The more emails they get the better, and the more people they get hounding them for this item, the morI am e likely it is that they will make it for us!
Add me to the list my tag is ROCKYZZ from west palm beach, fla

I'm sure you could order them from the european market.

Try emailing/calling Middlehurst Nissan or even JapanParts

I priced the shiftknob alone in the UK--over $200.00 US + ship
