Aye, I didn't even see your Shuttle Ned! :oops:


Day 134-143

Little update...

Roof bar's were delayed as I wanted to get my Recaro's in the VT. The roof bars I'll try and do tomorrow if the weather holds off.

All the wheels are ready to be painted. Polished all the lips, and my hand is tonk city!! My finger tips are smooth like a baby's bum!
:lol:

And today I've been JDM shopping again.
The Beagle was stacked on top of a Volvo, so it was a bit tricky to say the least getting bits off. The alloys and centre caps were still there. He wanted £100 for them as the tyres are like new - I'm sure he will take a bit less. ;)
I may get them, along with the boot plastics as someone in the US is after them, but they will be a PITA to remove due to it's new location.

- Washer jet relay (for Nominous)
- Front door window sills (for me)
- Passenger front mat
- Parcel shelf
- Dial surround buttons and 'fake' button
- Centre console
- JDM manual folding electric mirrors and interior trims
- Aerial signal booster
- 4WD steering wheel badge
- Sidelight
- Clear indicators
- JDM clock
- JDM auto climate heater controls and relay
- JDM fusebox diagram :D

I found the other front floor mat lying on the ground under a load of crap...
So I gave it a dowsing with water, brushed it, then covered it in Woolite, let to soak for 10 minutes, then brushed off with water.

After (could do with another go):

Yeah that relay looks about right :)

I thought you said it didn't have climate control, just the A/C button ?

Bah...

Any chance of the A/C box behind the dash, plus all the wiring and the A/C ECU too ??
Yeah that'll be a fun job :lol:

Did you get a chunk of dash? I've run out of holes now. Going to have to use the cut out on the cluster binacle which luckily is the same size as the face lift rear fog switch.

not really mate, as it is rather a big job, prehaps if i knew exactly what it looked like it would be easier. i almost took the ecu for it!

no sorry, i didnt have anything really to cut.
would the foot-well fuse box cover be any use?

Day 152

So I've been rather unwell since Saturday (Rumbling Appendix), but I'm half way to recovery, so got stuck in with a few missions today.

- Fitted the new window sill I took from the Beagle last week.
- Fitted new radiator (thanks Chapman!), broke my PB ;)
- Fitted JDM manual folding mirrors.

Tomorrow I'm going to start painting the alloys.
