Currently considering getting my S1 interior specced up with the usual suspects, alloy handbrake, indicator stalks, heater controls etc. Eliseparts.com seems to be the favourite at the moment, though was wondering if anybody had experienced any problems with this Firm. Also as am V suspicous of ordering anything online (plus would like to see what Im buying before I part with my hard earned), is it possible to actually visit this Firm to see what they have. Does anyone know where they are based ? Can you go and visit them ? Last but by no means least, have seen a few photos of an S1 with an alloy gearlever gaiter. After checking Eliseparts.com, they dont sell such an item. Anyone out there know who does (and for how much). As usual, many thanks.

Eliseparts is run by the ever helpful and knowledgeable Geary. It is a trustworthy setup, you can't actually purchase online. You can order but you need to call/fax your CC details before anything is shipped - very safe setup IMO.

Eliseparts are very trustworthy, don't worry about it. Their location is on the website, you'd need to call to arrange a visit if you think it's essential before buying, but really what are you going to see that the photograph of the item doesn't show you? It's just a bit of metal!

You might also want to consider www.hangar111.com - I know the chap who runs that site and he is very trustworthy.

you "can" order online, as i screwed up the phone number (im a telephone-numpty), so emailed Joy/Geary with what i want and my details. 2 days later got everything, with no problems at all

If Elise-parts etc dont have what youre looking for, its worth having a look at the auctions on ebay. Quite alot of elise stuff. Got a hand brake sleeve off there for about £20 new. Very pleased with it.

Geary is great- ordered parts from him and had them in Sydney within the week. Also very helpful chap in answering e-mails/questions regarding his products.
