I didn't think that Zeta's satin trim kit came with the door switch covers... only the ring around the door latches. Is this something new that they are offering?

The interior pieces are nice, but the price you're paying for them from Zeta is waaaay too much. I bought my entire trim kit (10 pieces minus the auto shifter piece...got that elsewhere) for much less than what Zeta wants for 6 pieces



Illusive also got a set as well

I don't know if Zeta is going to offer those door switch covers yet or not...

As for their prices, the cost for their 6 pc. trim kit is not all that bad. Especially when compared to the OEM stuff.

I couldn't be happier with their quality and customer service, so, for me I will continue to support them.

Sorry, forgot about that! They said that the design you have is an earlier design, and that in the end they settled on the design that I got.

a) where did you get it then?
b) were those colored? or did you color them yourself? I might get it if I can get them red.

Hey now,

For the doors you need to do the following:

1) where the back of the door arm rest meets the side panel put a flat head screwdriver in between and pry out. Then carefully pull towards you and pull off the plastic arm rest piece.

2) the console should now be exposed. It will be attached to:

(A) the plastic piece where you would put your hand to close the door
(B) the door panel itself.

3) If you look underneath you will see a clip that is part of the console trim and is hooked to (A) above. Get your flathead from underneath and pry up to release it. Now the console should wiggle up and down.

4) the plastic piece where you put your hand to close the door (A above) is actually bolted to the door itself I believe with a couple of Phillips screws. I would loosen them a little (not all the way) and then you should be able to take the whole console trim out much easier (the console will still be attached).

5) from underneath you will see the window console is attached to the trim via 2 or 3 tiny screws. With a tiny Phillips screwdriver unscrew them. (Note- you will have to tilt the trim up to get at the one closest to the door).

6) separate the console from the trim. Look underneath and wiggle the trim. You will see where it is attached to the door by 2 plastic clips that are molded onto the trim itself. Get your flathead and pry up where they are attached.

7) repeat the process for the other 3. It might sound tedious but in reality it took me 2-3 minutes to get each one off.

you have to remove the interior arm rest part of the door panel. the whole thing is clipped in, you need to carefully use a flat blade screwdriver and prise apart. Take a look from the bottom up wards and you'll see the hidden clip locations.

guage trim just pops off...there are a few clips from behind but basically just grab hold and pull.

The steering wheel was a pain in the ass. there is a link somewhere on this site that has the PDF service manual for the Jazz. that is what i looked at to do it.

My armrest pieces were a defective kit. Zeta has chosen not to sell those particular pieces.

You can get the rest of the interior kit from them though.

I don't know about those blue ones pictured above. You may have to contact Illusive for info on them.
