Time to fix the little things...

[CHARGEDVT]

got a few little annoying things on the car that need to be fixed so hoping you guys could help me out.

first is the black rubber strips that run along the top of the doors. my front two have split and holden have quoted me $33 for each individual strip! does any1 know if any after market manufacturers supply these? also how do u go about replacing them?

Another thing is the air vents for the back seats. i dont know how the previous owner did it but the vent slits are snapped out of their places. so was hoping sum1 knew the procedure on replacing them?

the plastic surrounding of the gear lever and power window buttons is all scratched and i dont feel like paying $75 to get a new 1. so im going to source that 2nd hand. does any1 know how to replace this part aswell.

and lastly my leather steering wheel (has airbag) is all faded. does any1 know how much it would cost to replace it?

cheers

Genuine steering wheels in new (or new) condition have been fetching $300+ last time i looked.
find a good second hand one or try rub some oil into the leather.

the rear vents is a console out job - you can buy the whole vent assembly new for around $50. - thats the whole lot - the facia, vents, everything at the back of the console.
You can snap the individual vent fins back into their place too.
it might seem like they are going to break but they will re-seat themselves.

the plastic surround for the gear lever and power windows just pulls up at the back near the p/w switches and then there is two screws up under the headunit
