Ive got a spare roller cover sitting in the 480. Missing one clip (the bit that fixes to the interior panel but youd have that anyway) its not perfect but feel free to contact me for a look if you want.

The trims to the left and right of the screen are riveted on and therefore are easily removed/replaced. The top trim can be removed and refitted but ideally, the screen should come out to do it. It can be done, it just takes more time to get it right. :)

I've done a 'how-to' on fitting passenger seat height adjustment which includes a few pics of the seat layout. These might be of some help.

I just used small nuts and bolts and secured that way. No need for original fittings.

Did you know WD40 does the same as the AG ITR? Not sure if it works on stickers though!

Hot water will soften the glue making it easier to remove. Just dont use boiling water and burn yourself!
