i havent updated in a wile but ave done a canny bit , had brakes exhaust all fitted there now it pulls so much better with the straight through system on .
ive made a couple of templates for the poly carb windows ready to cut them out and wack them in

i had a fun tonite stripping the sound proofing out with the heat gun from the drivers foot well and behind the rear door cards , heat gun makes it sooooooo much easier

Looking good.

You can lose pretty much all of the loom that travels under the seats past the handbrake. There's only really the handbrake switch of use to you out of all of it.

Rest is electric windows / locking / heated seats / auto box connectors.
