As said in recent posts my seats were welded in today
Pics of where they welded...(Excuse the dirtyness in the pics its a bit cleaner now )

After they were welded:







Then put some black hammerite on to prevent rust:







Someone gave me there Irmscher mats so chucked them in



And now a pic of the interior: (getting more like a veccy GSi everyday lol)




Heres a pic after a quick polish:

Interior wise - coming along nicely, but please attack it all with some shampoo - it's grubby!

Shampoo - Megs Gold Class or Dodo Juice Sour Power or Dodo Juice Born to be Mild.

Some Meguiars stuff is good - I find the gold class a bit better than the NXT stuff, a lot of their bodyshop / pro range is ok too.
