Looking good hun nice car liking the mods so far

Santa's going to have a big job on his hands delivering two large boxes lol

I'm thinking it'll be Fraz who has the bigger job of spending all Xmas eve installing it all so I can 'unwrap it' the following morning



Oh and a small update - I've been emailing a few places seeing where I can get some custom vinyl made up - slow going at the moment as the effing places arn't replying...

And I've had some suprise cash through that I wasn't banking on, so looks like I can crack on with the task of recovering those door cards....

Gonna have to get a massive bow to wrap up the whole car

And then put a bangin' donk on it! :devil:

I'll install all the cabling first ready for everything to be swapped in I think, reckon the cabling will take a weekend at least.

They're called fog lights dear

Saw a pair of them fogs on eBay might grab them they look pretty decent. If I got them I think i would mask them up and spray them gloss black

Yeah that's where I got these from - Linky. The seller is in Bulgaria though, so they've taken about 10 days to arrive. Prefer these to the full lense ones though (and they're cheaper )

 

[BenYoung]

yeah there the ones
yeah i prefer them to the full lens do they take much wiring?

Not sure tbh. I'll be fitting them over the weekend (weather permitting), so I'll let you know

some grande's have them stock. dont know which one tho.

Anyone thinking about it - don't buy those foglights, they are shocklingly badly made, leaving massive gaps between the housing and bumper, avoid unless you're a fan of ill-fitting bits.

The hunt continues!

I wasn't actually going to take it anywhere to have done - I was going to do it myself... Been told the door cards aren't too tricky to take off, then it's just a case of pulling off the old material and sticking on the new. There's some guides to how to change the speakers that give the general gist of how to get them off.

If you're not so keen on a DIY job though, I'd suggest any upholsterers should be able to do it for you - just make sure you ring round to get some prices, and don't automatically go with the cheapest, as I'd imagine you'll get what you pay for...
