Got out there today and got most of it done, was a royal pain in the arse trying to get the fucker moved with no suspension or wheels

Involved wheels and jacks and a lot of shoving



Got it straight then got the QQ and pushed it, clutch reeked

Random shot,



Everything off



Ready to drop the engine out now, just need to unbolt the engine mounts and its all go.

Just leaving the dash loom in, its more work that isn't necessary.

When I thought I was selling up I sold my smoked depos, and then annoyingly I decided to keep it, so this time I'm making my own

But because my lights are Valeo there mega hard to split, when I took the glass off the the other set the plastic deformed and broke due to the heat, so I was told to smash the glass off my other set

Its worked but its hard getting the glue out of the recess

It didn't feel right tbh Shaun, its not that often I go out to my car and hit it with a hammer

No progress on getting the engine out unfortunately, weather hasn't been on my side and neither has time tbh. I did manage to sort my headlights out though, finished them last night

10 mins in the oven with VALEO's is more than enough thats all mine had

Looks good thought mate, did you remove the orange reflectors from the indicators by any chance? it makes a big differance to the look in the dark
