I'm glad it's getting kept on th road. £60 to get welded is cheap! I was quoted £200! Sorry about the wiring. It came like that and i never got round to sorting it.

If anyone wants to know how i done the spoiler and rear bumper i'll maybe do a write up soon. It wasn't that hard to make either just quite alot of time :wink:

Update time

To start of my dad sorted out the wiring for the stereo, discovered that there is some nice sony xplod speakers in the door cards.

Image

As you can see wires tidy up abit better and correct plugs put on

Image

Oh whats this

Image

Still unsure on them tbh, i need to buy a gear gator and also the hand brake cover(i think any way)

Fitted the standard airbox BUT it does bolt in any were or have any holes that line up or anything, so what should i do ? Just sorta jam it in position or make some holes to bolt it in ?

Image

Image

Next the speed line alloys, no idea what these are or what their worth or anything. Unsure about them as currently the car has 13" steelies and sits pretty nice but these are fifteen inch and GIGANTIC compared to the 13's so thinking may refurb them sell them and get 14's. Opinions ?

Image

Image

Image


Also what size are the original door speakers ? As i beleive some one has put the originals in the parcel shelf and i want to replace them with something better but not make the holes any bigger in the parcel shelf.

Also going to attempt the iphone/ipod dock in the ashtray mod shortly.

Got £100 in my paypal to purchase some bits so i am thinking

Mugen Pedals
Wind Deflectors
Gear Gator

Any other suggestions ?
