great work mate looks lot better painted white

yeh, lookin good joe, like the valance, good job with the housing for the switches too...

saw this today on Alderley Avenue in Claughton about midday today, mate its looking brilliant - good work!

wots this about a mazda???

Spoiler brake light finally sorted today.

As the orignal broke when the spoiler fell off the roof when I was drilling the holes to fit it, I bought a universal 48 LED one, took the mounts off the ends, cut the ends a bit shorter to fit and drilled holes in the ends so that it could be screwed to the spoiler.

I also threaded the door pin rods more and cut them and the door pins shorter so they are flush when the car is locked. I'll be buying some round aluminium door pins or chrome ones if I can't find aluminiums ones.

you need bling rear lights next..or at least white indicator ones mate

Fitted the text alert/tracker unit and fed the antenna through the dash and finished it off nicely with a door card gromet which I didn't need as after setting the door pins lower, they wouldnt fit unless I took them off.

Also fitted a small relay to the output of the text alert so I can set the alarm off by texting it. Pretty useless feature, but I can always set it to do something else when I text it like set the cameras to record or heat the drivers seat before I get in it on cold winter mornings lol

looks great joe, cant wait to see this progress in the metal at the meet..

top work as normal mr joe

cheers

Bought some electric regulators for the rear door windows for a tenner off ebay so I can remove the handles.
Soon I'll buy an auto window closure kit too.

Finally got round to painting the jack hole caps and just fitted an Autowirral logo to the back window - Cheers Mark

cheers
