That's what I did, works OK but baffles the sound a lot. Have you sorted the idle issue Chris?

Sound wasnt too bad in the vids actually, just the camera kept falling out of the headrest
Yup, runs lovely now, was just the wires to the MAP sensor. Still need to replace the entire loom though, its been bodged so badly

New fibreglass door cards might be being bought, I messaged the lad and he still has them so I replied saying I'll take them, just waiting to hear back
Before they will be fitted I'll need to buy a manual winder set up and new interior door handle surrounds and then I can lose the electric windows, they will also get flocked at some point.
EDIT: Door handle surrounds now bought.

Yeah although I'll probably buy a second dash and get it sent off or dropped off somewhere, I wan't lots flocking but I'll have to do it all in bits. I need to get some door pockets off a 106 with no electric windows as the switches arent there.

It looks soo bare without them though I prefer it how it is in the above picture. All the speakers and everything will be going anyway.

Exhaust is on, sounds nice, really burbles at idle and when at steady revs in gear, going down gears sounds nice aswell. It isnt overly loud when accelerating either. I'll get some pics later.
Tomorow I need to go and cut the spare wheel brackets off as the exhaust is vibrating against one of them. The backbox had 4 hangers on it, I might cut 2 off as they're not needed...
